A new study has found that people who lived in areas with high levels of leaded gasoline emissions in the 1960s and ’70s are more likely to report memory problems today—a finding that researchers say […]
A fading sense of smell can be one of the earliest signs of Alzheimer’s disease even before cognitive impairments manifest. Research by scientists at DZNE and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) sheds new light on this phenomenon, […]
Hospital Clínico San Carlos in Madrid-led research reports that intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paired with language therapy over six months was associated with positive outcomes in primary progressive aphasia (PPA). Improvements included less […]
Mitochondria do far more than just act as “powerhouses”—they are also response hubs that send and receive messages to regulate cellular activity.This article was originally published on MedicalXpress.com
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed a diagnostic platform that amplifies the unique optical signals of molecules by more than a hundred million times, enabling the precise detection and quantification […]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease in older people, affecting up to one in 20 individuals aged 65 and above. In addition to environmental and lifestyle factors, genetic mutations can predispose an […]
Duke University School of Medicine-led research finds male patients with dementia have higher mortality rates and higher use of many health care services, especially hospital stays, than comparable female patients.This article was originally published on […]
Women with Down syndrome have more advanced signs of Alzheimer’s disease than men do at the average age of diagnosis, which is the same for both sexes, according to research by the University of California, […]
Healthy brain function relies on a steady supply of blood. Disruptions in blood flow are linked to major neurological conditions like stroke, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and traumatic brain injuries. But understanding how the brain fine-tunes […]
