With microplastics now permeating our food and our bodies, researchers are keen to assess the potential damage these tiny ...

A gradual decrease in cerebral blood flow can lead to the quick development of brain-related cognitive deterioration – including Alzheimer’s disease, the most common type of dementia.

Studies in mice show that microplastics entering the bloodstream are engulfed by immune cells, forming clusters that can ...

Trapped immune cells laden with microplastics starve the brain of oxygen—mouse study links vascular blockages to memory loss ...

Microplastics may cause blockages in blood vessels in the brain and affect behavior, according to a study on mice.

Known conditions that increase the risk of CVST include hypercoagulable states, dehydration, adjacent infectious processes, low cerebral blood flow, oral contraceptives, hormone replacement ...

Objectives: To explore relationships between scuba diving activity, brain, and behaviour, and more specifically between global cerebral blood flow (CBF) or cognitive performance and total, annual, or ...
