Lung cancer is a major type of cancer in the world, with the highest morbidity and mortality among all malignant tumors. ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (ALK+ NSCLC) is a relatively rare and dangerous subtype, with patients suffering from a high incidence rate of brain metastases. Statistics show that about 55% of ALK-positive advanced NSCLC patients will develop brain metastases during ...
Sleep is an important factor to help maintain health and well-being. It’s recommended that an adult should get at least 7 hours of sleep a night. Getting a good night’s sleep has many benefits such as better memory, reduced stress levels and lowers the risk of heart disease. On the flip side, not getting enough sleep regularly can have serious repercussions such as a weaker immune ...
Introduction By leveraging Connectomics to trace functional connectivity, seven large-scale brain networks have been identified. These networks have the most dominance over cortical function in the brain, and each serves an overarching common function. While some networks are familiar, many networks, and their constituents, are newly discovered1. These major networks control brain ...
Meditation is often thought of as an avenue to clarity and self-awareness, but it may also be an avenue to better brain health. Emerging research suggests meditation may have significant benefits to brain health, ranging from improved mental and behavioral health to enhanced cognitive function. In this article, we will break down how meditation helps the brain and provide helpful tips for ...
Stroke is one of the most devastating and most prominent causes of disability around the globe, with 800,000 new cases each year in the US alone. During a stroke, the brain experiences an interruption in blood supply, which prevents the brain tissue from receiving the oxygen it needs to function properly. The most prevalent type of stroke is an ischemic stroke, which happens when a vessel that ...
