A new study by investigators from Mass General Brigham suggests that heavy alcohol use may lead to more severe brain bleeds ...

People with gum disease may have higher levels of brain white matter damage, a new study finds. Researchers observed that participants with gum disease had significantly more white matter ...

For patients with spontaneous, nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), heavy alcohol use (HAU) is associated with white matter hyperintensities and a hypertensive cerebral small vessel disease ...

In a study led by researchers at the University of Cambridge, impaired movement of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) – a clear liquid ...

The researchers defined heavy alcohol use as regular alcohol consumption of three or more drinks per day. One drink was equivalent to 14 g of pure alcohol -- typically, 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of ...

Older adults with periodontal disease show larger volumes of white matter damage on MRI, hinting at an oral-brain health link.

Intervening in the pathways that disrupt the brain’s waste clearance system could help prevent or slow Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.

When these tiny blood vessel pulses become excessive, they may interfere with the brain’s “glymphatic system,” a recently identified network that clears away waste such as beta-amyloid, the protein ...

Researchers have discovered that problems with the brain’s waste-clearing system—the glymphatic system—may significantly raise the risk of developing dementia.

Researchers at the University of Cambridge found that reduced sleep can negatively impact how well the glymphatic system ...

Of the total group, 800 people suffered from gum disease, and another 343 people were healthy. All participants also underwent brain scans to identify signs of small vessel disease in the brain ...
