By Hugo Francisco de Souza New neuroimaging research shows that when sleep-deprived people lose focus, the brain briefly ...

Yawning can impact the flow of cerebrospinal fluid and venous blood flow, suggesting a regulation of neurofluids and increase ...

The brain's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulses during deep sleep and this appears to be tied to brain wave activity and blood flow, an exploratory study showed. Large oscillations of CSF inflow to the ...

Yawning has an unusual and unexpected effect on the flow of fluid protecting the brain, a recent study reveals, though it's ...

One key role of sleep involves cerebrospinal fluid, which surrounds and protects the brain. During sleep, CSF helps remove waste that accumulates during waking hours. In a 2019 study, Lewis and her ...

Although yawning seems like a small, everyday action, recent studies have found that it causes an unexpected reaction in the ...

Sleep is profoundly restorative for the brain, partly because it clears solutes and waste products. This flushing works best during the deepest periods of sleep, but why is that? Data from the lab of ...

Bagged in three layers of meninges and selectively fenced off by the blood brain barrier, our central nervous system (CNS) interacts within strict limits with our immune system. Protective ...

Massage might help your brain flow regain its mojo. On June 4 in Nature, researchers led by Gou Young Koh at the Institute for Basic Science in Daejeon, South Korea, mapped the labyrinth of lymphatics ...
