A new study identifies molecular factors that promote small vessel disease - and an active drug that can restore impaired vascular functions. Researchers at the LMU University Hospital have uncovered ...

Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) encompasses a spectrum of microvascular pathologies affecting arterioles, capillaries and venules in the brain. It is increasingly recognised as a major contributor ...

A new study identifies molecular factors that promote small vessel disease—and an active drug that can restore impaired vascular functions. Researchers at the LMU University Hospital have uncovered ...

Disturbed sleep was associated with greater small vessel disease (SVD) burden and worse cognitive performance in patients with transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or mild stroke. This cross-sectional ...

Consuming at least three alcoholic drinks per day is associated with increased severity of acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and signs of more advanced cerebral small vessel disease, researchers ...

Scientists have discovered that a common type of stroke may have a very different cause than doctors once thought. Instead of fatty plaque clogging arteries, the strongest link was found with enlarged ...

New research suggests that the most common type of stroke may have a very different origin than doctors long assumed, ...

A new study from Karolinska Institutet shows that damage to small blood vessels in the hereditary disease CADASIL may disrupt important brain functions in the hippocampus, a region involved in memory.

While strokes are known to increase risk for dementia, much less is known about diseases of large and small blood vessels in the brain, separate from stroke, and how they relate to dementia. Diseased ...
