It may be possible to identify the presence of an aggressive brain tumor in children by studying their cerebrospinal fluid, according to new research led by Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center ...

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks represent a significant clinical challenge, marked by the aberrant escape of CSF from its usual confines into adjacent structures such as the paranasal sinuses, which ...

Exploring the genetic blueprint of cerebrospinal fluid proteins, this study uncovers new markers and therapeutic targets that may unlock advancements in Alzheimer’s diagnosis and care. Study: ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

Looking back at how she discovered the condition, Dr Hard said: "I felt this jolt in my neck like I had cricked a muscle.

Researchers have linked disease-related proteins and genes to identify specific cellular pathways responsible for Alzheimer's genesis and progression. The proteins were gathered from cerebrospinal ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, an international team of researchers demonstrated amyloid aggregation due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in ...

A test that looks for genetic hallmarks of brain cancers in samples of cerebrospinal fluid can decrease the time to diagnosis and eliminate the need for invasive brain biopsies for some patients.

The images are authentic and genuinely show the brain of a 44-year-old man with an excess amount of fluid in parts of his brain that may have possibly displaced other brain matter. The images were ...
