Yawning can help the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and venous blood flow, suggesting a regulation of neurofluids and increase ...

A major international study has uncovered a new biological clue that could help predict dementia long before memory problems arise. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University ...

Researchers have discovered, in rodents, that fluid that circulates through the brain flows to areas critical for normal brain development and function, suggesting that disruptions to its circulation ...

The brain's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulses during deep sleep and this appears to be tied to brain wave activity and blood flow, an exploratory study showed. Large oscillations of CSF inflow to the ...

Chiari malformation type I (CMI) is a congenital neurological disorder characterized by the herniation of cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum, leading to impaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...

Researchers at Boston University, USA report that the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain is linked to waking brain activity. Led by Stephanie Williams, and publishing in the open access journal ...

Evidence of sleep-dependent low-frequency (less than 0.1 Hz) global brain activity in the clearance of Alzheimer's disease-related toxin buildup is presented in new research. This neuronal activity ...

Sleep is often described as the body’s recovery period, but for the brain, it is more like a nightly cleaning cycle. During deep rest, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulates through brain tissue, ...
