In the January 11 issue of Neurology, researchers from Argentina and Spain reported on movement in patients who showed no brain activity on electroencephalogram tests. The Argentinean study included 38 patients diagnosed with brain death during an 18-month period. Fifteen, or 39%, had motor movemen...
Near-Death Experiences and Conscious Brain Activity After Clinical Death Now Grounded In Science - Waking Timesfeaturedneardeath experiencesscience of spirit
It is the death of an individual as characterized and defined by the irreversible end of all brain activity (including involuntary activity necessary to sustain life) due to complete interruption of the cerebral blood circulation associated with loss of brain oxygenation resulting in total necrosis of...
In the hours after we die, certain cells in the human brain are still active. Some cells even increase their activity and grow to gargantuan proportions, according to new research from the University of Illinois Chicago. In a newly published study in the journalScientific Reports, the UIC...
WASHINGTON, April 17 (Xinhua) -- Scientists from Yale University restored circulation and cellular activity in a pig's brain four hours after its death. The study published on Wednesday in the journal Nature showed that some basic cellular functions were observed in the brain of a postmortem pig...
Cardiac arrest in rodents: maximal duration compatible with a recovery of neuronal activity. Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 95, 4748–4753 (1998). This is an important study investigating the maximum amount of ischaemic time compatible with electrophysiological function of neurons in acute brain slice ...
摘要: The authors examine trends in donation after cardiac death (DCD) and donation after brain death (DBD) to assess whether expansion of the donor pool by augmenting DCD has occurred to the detriment of DBD. See brief communication by Saidi et al on page 2536....
The importance of serine for brain activity may be inferred by the very strong correlation found in this study between plasma and CSF serine levels. Impaired serine production in astrocytes contributes to cognitive dysfunction in AD [92]. Glycine is normally produced by the brain [40]. Its ...
One of the long-term sequelae associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection is ‘brain fog’, which is shown in this study to be linked to systemic inflammation and leakiness of the blood–brain barrier. Sian Lewis Research Highlights14 Mar 2024 Nature Reviews Neuroscience Volume: 25, P: 287 Leak...
Reduced neuronal activity and reactivation in Alzheimer's disease Experiments are discussed that indicate that it is attractive to direct therapeutic strategies towards restimulation of neuronal metabolism and repair mechanisms in order to improve cognitive and behavioral symptoms of AD...
