Infections and neurodegenerative diseases cause inflammation in the brain. But for unknown reasons, patients with brain inflammation often develop muscle problems that seem to be independent of the ...

Color-coded brain figure shows an example of segmented regional volumes obtained from the 3D T1 volumetric MRI scans used for the artificial intelligence computations of brain age. CHICAGO – ...

Research reveals how brain inflammation triggers extreme muscle weakness across several diseases, including viral infection, bacterial infection and Alzheimer's disease. The study, in fruit flies and ...

Chronic pain can be debilitating and frustrating, especially among aging adults. While physical remedies and treatments can provide some relief, experts have found that shifting one's mindset — or the ...

Researchers have flipped the script on the usual approach to pain relief in a new study, demonstrating that a short course of non-invasive brain stimulation before a painful event such as surgery can ...

A novel biomarker signature may offer a more objective way of predicting pain sensitivity, new research suggested. Investigators utilized the biomarker, which consisted of two measures — sensorimotor ...

As if the benefits of strength training weren’t extensive enough, we have another perk to add to the pile: a younger brain. That’s right – according to brand-new research that will be presented at the ...
