Artificial intelligence model identifies potential risk genes for Parkinson's disease
January 29, 2025
Researchers have successfully applied advanced artificial intelligence (AI) genetics models to Parkinson's disease. Researchers identified genetic factors in progression and FDA-approved drugs that can potentially be repurposed for PD treatment. The report uses an approach called 'systems biology,' ...

Innovative one-minute video game boasts 80% success rate in diagnosing autism
January 28, 2025
A new one-minute video game is able to accurately and efficiently identify children with autism from those who have ADHD or are neurotypical.
Delayed REM sleep could be an early sign of Alzheimer's
January 27, 2025
Scientists have recently shown that both the quality and the amount of sleep we get may influence our risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers map the brain's self-healing abilities after stroke
January 24, 2025
A new study sheds light on one of the most severe consequences of stroke: damage to the brain's 'cables'-- the so-called nerve fibers -- which leads to permanent impairments.
Exercise improves brain function, possibly reducing dementia risk
January 24, 2025
Scientists have shown that specialized cells involved in how the body responds to insulin are activated in the brain after exercise, suggesting that physical activity may directly improve brain function.
Study shows anti-clotting drug reduced bleeding events in patients with atrial fibrillation
January 23, 2025
Researchers evaluated a drug that represents a new class of anticoagulants known as Factor XI inhibitors for treating patients with atrial fibrillation as part of the AZALEA-TIMI 71 Study. The trial was stopped early by the recommendation of the Data Monitoring Committee due to an overwhelming reduc...

Researchers create new guidelines to diagnose common memory disorder frequently mistaken for Alzheimer's Disease
January 22, 2025
New guidelines will help doctors identify patients with a common memory-loss syndrome that is often misdiagnosed as Alzheimer's disease in older adults. The diagnostic criteria for limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE) have just been published. These guidelines are an important...

Your stroke risk might be higher if your parents divorced during your childhood
January 22, 2025
People whose parents divorced during their childhood may be at a greater risk of stroke later in life, according to a new study.
Childhood epilepsy may predispose to memory disorders later in life
January 22, 2025
Researchers demonstrated that individuals who had childhood epilepsy have an increased accumulation of brain amyloid later in life, potentially predisposing them to late-onset brain amyloid disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease.
New study uncovers key mechanism behind learning and memory
January 21, 2025
A breakthrough study sheds new light on how brain cells relay critical information from their extremities to their nucleus, leading to the activation of genes essential for learning and memory.
