The fluid-filled spaces around the brain's blood vessels need proper waste "clearance" every few hours. When that fails to happen, a baby's risk for autism appears to rise, new research shows. It's ...

Throughout the day and night, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulses through small fluid-filled channels surrounding blood vessels in the brain, called perivascular spaces, to flush out neuroinflammation ...

Extra-axial cerebrospinal fluid (EA-CSF) and perivascular space (PVS) segmentation on 24-month scan of a child who was diagnosed with autism. Throughout the day and night, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...

Researchers studying a rare genetic condition tied to high psychosis risk have found that the brain’s waste-clearing plumbing ...

Evidence has linked fibrinogen to increased amyloid plaque deposition around the brain’s vasculature, a poorly understood condition termed cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Now, scientists led by ...

The space between the arachnoid and pia meningeal layers encasing the brain is a landscape of connective tissue, blood vessels, and cerebrospinal fluid. Scientists debate how that fluid moves within ...

Researchers have found that enlarged perivascular spaces in the brains of babies, caused by an accumulation of excess cerebrospinal fluid, have a 2.2 times greater chance of developing autism later in ...
