A landmark South Korean study of 2.8 million adults reveals that both elevated blood pressure and hypertension significantly increase dementia risk, particularly vascular dementia, with stronger effects observed in midlife adults and women.
This feasibility RCT demonstrates that contingent fMRI neurofeedback targeting the left supramarginal gyrus can improve reading comprehension in stroke survivors with aphasia, outperforming both healthy controls and non-contingent neurofeed
This longitudinal cohort study reveals that biomarker-based biological age, particularly KDMAge and PhenoAge residuals, significantly predicts progression of cerebral small vessel disease, including new lacunes and microbleeds, offering pot
A Brazilian autopsy study of 2,268 individuals reveals that female sex, APOE ε4 status, and African ancestry jointly influence amyloid pathology. Women showed 65% higher adjusted odds of neuritic plaques, and protective effects against amyl
The PINGS trial demonstrates that a 12-month nurse-led mobile health intervention significantly improves blood pressure control among Ghanaian stroke survivors, with 67% achieving target BP versus 43% in usual care. This pragmatic approach
This review synthesizes recent evidence on the neuroprotective effects of healthy dietary patterns (Mediterranean, MIND), the synergistic impact of lifestyle and pharmacotherapy (GLP-1), and systemic advances in acute stroke care and second
A new study reveals that neurologists receiving $1,000 or more from drug manufacturers were over 4 times more likely to prescribe expensive brand-name MS medications when generics were available, driving up costs for patients and the health
A prospective multicenter study demonstrates that teleneurological ward rounds achieve 92% guideline adherence versus 54% for on-site consultations in subacute stroke care, with superiority across all quality domains and most pronounced ben
This review synthesizes recent clinical evidence on the integration of plasma p-tau217 and eMTBR-tau243, highlighting how sequential biomarker testing improves the diagnosis of symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease and predicts longitudinal cogni
Subgroup analysis of the OPTIMAS trial reveals that neither the timing of atrial fibrillation diagnosis nor AF subtype modifies the treatment effect of early versus delayed direct oral anticoagulant initiation in acute ischemic stroke. Pers
A landmark study of 631 participants reveals that normative modeling uncovers substantial individual heterogeneity in brain morphology following traumatic brain injury that conventional group-based analyses miss, with every patient exhibiti
The EDESTROKE trial finds no significant difference in 90-day functional outcomes between early (<6h) and delayed (6-12h) extubation post-thrombectomy, shifting focus toward microvascular and hemodynamic optimization.
This review synthesizes evidence on sex differences in syncope management, highlighting that while men face higher admission rates and adverse events, these disparities are largely driven by baseline clinical risk factors rather than gender
A retrospective cohort study reveals that dementia patients with preferred language other than English are more likely to have documented goals-of-care discussions yet experience significantly higher hospital-based healthcare utilization ne
Recent advances in digital pathology and machine learning reveal that APOE ε4 promotes proteinopathy and modifies dementia thresholds, while multi-modal trajectories suggest distinct pathways for disease progression in Lewy body disease.
The Phase 4 RESOLUTION trial demonstrates that eptinezumab 100 mg IV, combined with standardized patient education, significantly reduces migraine frequency and acute medication reliance in adults with comorbid chronic migraine and medicati
Four men exposed in childhood to cadaveric pituitary-derived human growth hormone developed dementia decades later; one autopsied case showed severe Alzheimer-type pathology, including tauopathy, supporting a transmissible iatrogenic Alzhei
A retrospective study reveals that 24% of patients meeting the latest MS criteria following optic neuritis actually have MOGAD or NMOSD, emphasizing the need for antibody testing to prevent misdiagnosis.
The SECRETO study reveals that infections within the preceding week significantly increase the risk of cryptogenic ischemic stroke in patients aged 18–49, with elevated von Willebrand Factor and Factor VIII levels serving as critical biomar
The Phase 2b PARADIGM trial demonstrates that PrimeC—a novel combination of celecoxib and ciprofloxacin—is safe and significantly slows functional decline in ALS patients over 18 months, offering new hope for multi-target neuroprotective st
