ABSTRACT Introduction Cognitive impairment and exercise intolerance are common in dialysis patients. Cerebral perfusion and oxygenation play a major role in both cognitive function and exercise execution; HD session per se aggravates cerebral ischemia in this population. This study aimed to compare cerebral oxygenation and perfusion at rest and in mild

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...

Exploring Affordable Curative Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease in Africa: A Comprehensive Overview
ABSTRACT The practical aspects of developing curative treatments for sickle cell disease (SCD) in Africa, such as gene therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, involve strengthening healthcare infrastructure, training healthcare professionals, establishing regional treatment centers, and creating national SCD programs.

ABSTRACT Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. Chronic hypoxemia in uncorrected TOF causes compensatory erythrocytosis and hyperviscosity, predisposing to cerebrovascular complications. Stroke in this context is rare but clinically significant, especially in resource‐limited settings where access to imaging and
