Low levels of 'memory strengthening protein' may serve as early predictor of mild cognitive impairment

Results of a long-term, federally funded study of cognitively healthy adults — most with a family history of Alzheimer's disease — have added to evidence that low spinal fluid levels of a protein linked to learning and memory in mice may serve as an early predictor of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) years before symptoms appear.

Early antiplatelet medication linked to improved stroke recovery

Administering antiplatelet medication within 24 hours of mechanical thrombectomy, an effective procedure for stroke, may help patients more successfully recover and prevent high-risk individuals from experiencing additional strokes, according to a study presented today at the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery's (SNIS) 20th Annual Meeting.
