Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization Reduces Subdural Hematoma Recurrence
Adjunctive embolization after surgery lowered symptomatic recurrence from 28% to 4.3% in a randomized trial of 186 patients.
Normative Modeling Maps Individual Brain Deviations in Traumatic Brain Injury
Patient-specific MRI analysis reveals unique structural changes that traditional group-level averages often obscure in moderate-to-severe TBI.
Cesium-131 Collagen Tiles Improve Local Control in Recurrent Meningioma
A phase 2 trial shows resection plus brachytherapy achieves 48% local control at five years for aggressive, recurrent meningiomas.
Low CSF Amyloid-Beta Predicts Intracranial Hemorrhage in CAA Patients
Low levels of amyloid-beta 40 and 42 in cerebrospinal fluid are associated with a sevenfold increase in future symptomatic bleeding risk.
Abdominal Contractions Drive Brain Motion and Fluid Clearance in Mice
A hydraulic link between the abdomen and cranium suggests physical activity mechanically facilitates interstitial fluid drainage.

A review evaluates ultrasound and imaging techniques to detect intracranial hypertension in patients with coagulopathy or liver failure.
Molecular Markers in Rathke’s Cleft Cysts Correlate With Endocrine Deficits
A retrospective study of 108 patients identifies FOXJ1 and TUBA1A as indicators of hypopituitarism and vasopressin deficiency.
Subthalamic Nucleus Predominantly Facilitates Action in Primate Models
Electrophysiological data show 89 percent of task-related neurons in the subthalamic nucleus promote rather than inhibit motor choices.
