Among 132 older adults, 13 had peripheral artery disease (PAD), identified using the ankle–brachial index. Over approximately 13 months, PAD was associated with increasing middle cerebral artery mean flow velocity, with a significant difference in left‐sided velocity change between groups.

Transcranial focused ultrasound-induced blood‒brain barrier opening in mice without shaving hairs
Acoustic coupling through hairs remains a challenge to performing transcranial-focused ultrasound procedures. Here, we demonstrated that this challenge could be addressed by using oil as the coupling medium, leveraging oil's high affinity to hairs due to

ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by altered synaptic connectivity and network organization, resulting in profound impairments in social communication and interaction. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) represents a promising approach to modulate maladaptive plasticity associated with ASD;

Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of low‐intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) as a noninvasive neuromodulation technique in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Methods In this pilot, single‐blind, randomized sham‐controlled crossover trial, 12 patients with DRE underwent both LIFU and

Transcranial Doppler ultrasound to assess cerebrovascular reactivity: reliability, reproducibility and effect of posture [PDF]
Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) allows measurement of blood flow velocities in the intracranial vessels, and can be used to assess cerebral vasodilator responses to a hypercapnic stimulus. The reliability of this technique has not been established,

Muscle fatigue in patients with severe long COVID: A 2‐year follow‐up study
Abstract Background Fatigue is recognized as one of the most persistent and debilitating symptoms of long COVID, affecting both functionality and quality of life. However, its long‐term effects, especially beyond the first year after infection, remain poorly understood.
