According to UT Dallas researchers, chronic cannabis users extract more oxygen from brain blood flow and have higher cerebral blood flow than nonusers.
A new study reports air evacuations may pose a significant added risk for people with TBI as they could potentially cause more damage.
Researchers report variations in surrounding oxygen levels can reset the circadian clock in mice.
Inherent randomness in the flow rate of red blood cells through capillaries could be a cause of oxygen fluctuations in the brain.
A new study reports a modified $40 cotton candy machine could hold the key to creating artificial organs and capillary networks.
Dysfunction in brain cells caused by low oxygen is caused by the same responder system that is intended to be protective.
A lack of oxygen as a result of preterm birth does not cause hippocampal neurons to die but does impair hippocampal development. Hypoxia causes hippocampal cells to fail to mature normally, causing a reduction in long-term potentiation and impaired learning.
Researchers have developed a new optogenetics tool that can remove single cells from brain networks in living animals.
A number of patients in intensive care units for non-brain-related illnesses may suffer from cognitive dysfunction. Inflammation that occurs as a result of infection and problems with oxygen flow to the brain which occur when breathing is affected, could contribute to cognitive impairments.
Ischemic preconditioning may help to prevent stroke, a new study reports. Restricting blood flow by wearing inflatable blood pressure cuffs on the arms and legs allows for more controlled blood flow to the brain.
Study reveals as we sleep, cerebrospinal fluid pulses in the brain in rhythmic patterns.
According to a new study, poor physical fitness in middle age may be linked to lower brain volume in later life.
