Strokes

The loss of brain white matter and associated cognitive decline is faster for at least three years after a stroke

For the first time, researchers show that immune cells help control blood flow, and may hold the key to treating conditions like diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease and stroke

There are many unknowns about the long-term effects of COVID-19 on the brain – but new research investigates the potential impact of Post COVID-19 Neurological Syndrome (PCNS)

COVID-19 has stimulated a re-engineering of the health system, sometimes bringing the Emergency Department to the patient. This approach is already benefiting early treatment of stroke

Since the 1970s, the number of people dying because of heart disease and stroke has fallen. But there are worrying signs that this decline is slowing in countries like Australia

The design of rehabilitation facilities for people recovering from a stroke need to be ‘learning spaces’ that support re-acquiring lost skills

The risk of children suffering a stroke is higher than you think, but new research is showing that with the right treatment the window for recovery is wide open

Harnessing the brain’s capacity to overcome disability

Researchers show that a gene which converts glucose to glycogen in muscle tissue improves blood sugar levels and increases exercise capacity

An ingenious rehabilitation facility merges cutting-edge technology with medicine to speed up recovery for amputees and stroke victims.
