Scoliosis is often associated with syringomyelia (SM). As an important role in SM formation, the influence from abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow is still unclear to scoliosis. The aim of this ...

Investigating the flow behavior in microfluidic systems has become of interest due to the need for precise control of the mass and momentum transport in microfluidic devices. In multilayered-flows, ...

In their new study, the team looked to see what role this intercellular flow might play in other, noncancerous tissues. "Whether you allow the fluid to flow between cells or not seems to have a major ...

Researchers report that the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain is linked to waking brain activity. The study demonstrates that manipulating blood flow in the brain with visual stimulation ...

A popular hypothesis for how the brain clears molecular waste, which may help explain why sleep feels refreshing, is a subject of debate. Encased in the skull, perched atop the spine, the brain has a ...
