This study tested whether adding low-frequency magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) to standard clot-removal treatment helps people recover better after a severe stroke. Sixty adults with large-vessel blockage in the front part of the brain were enrolled within 24 hours of symptoms.…

This study tested whether adding the blood thinner tirofiban to standard aspirin therapy could prevent strokes from getting worse in people with a specific type of small-vessel stroke. About 970 adults aged 18-80 who had a stroke within the previous 48 hours took part. The goal w…

This study looked at whether giving a clot-busting drug (tenecteplase) before a procedure to remove a clot from the brain helps people who had a stroke 4.5 to 24 hours earlier. The trial involved 391 adults with a blockage in a major brain artery. The goal was to see if the combi…

This study tested a non-invasive treatment called low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF-rTMS) in 60 people who had an ischemic stroke within the previous 48 hours. The goal was to see if the magnetic pulses could slow brain damage and improve recovery. Pa…

This study looked at whether lowering blood pressure more than usual can help prevent small, unruptured brain aneurysms from bursting or growing. About 577 Chinese adults with high blood pressure and small aneurysms were randomly assigned to either standard or enhanced blood pres…

This study tested whether giving two blood thinners (ticagrelor and aspirin) together with standard clot-busting medicine helps people recover better after an ischemic stroke. About 1,382 adults aged 18-80 who had a stroke and received treatment within 6 hours took part. The goal…

This early-phase study tested a personalized vaccine made from a patient's own immune cells combined with standard chemotherapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer. Eleven adults who had surgery to remove most of their tumor received the vaccine and chemo…

This study tested a drug called tenecteplase in 452 people who had a severe stroke caused by a blockage in the main artery at the back of the brain. The goal was to see if this drug, given within 24 hours of symptoms, could help more people recover without disability compared to …

This study tested whether giving the drug tirofiban during stent procedures for unruptured brain aneurysms can reduce small blood clots in the brain compared to standard anti-clot medication. 192 adults aged 18-80 who needed a stent or flow diverter for an unruptured aneurysm too…

This study tested a noninvasive brain stimulation method called continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) in 60 people who had a stroke within the past two weeks. The goal was to see if targeting specific brain networks could improve arm and leg movement. Participants received ei…

This study tested whether injecting lidocaine plus platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into a nerve cluster in the neck (stellate ganglion block) works better than lidocaine alone for chronic migraine. 200 adults with chronic migraine took part. The main goal was to see if the combo treat…

This study followed over 31,000 people in China with unruptured brain aneurysms to see which treatment works best. Researchers compared conservative monitoring, surgical clipping, coil embolization, and flow diversion. The goal was to find the safest and most effective approach t…

This study looked back at medical records of 300 people with a type of lung cancer (EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer) that had spread to the brain or spinal cord. All patients were treated with the drug firmonertinib. The goal was to see how long the drug kept the cancer …

This study looked at 208 adults with severe brain injuries from bleeding or trauma. Researchers continuously measured brain temperature and pressure to find patterns. The goal was to see if these patterns could predict how well patients would recover 30 days later. This was an ob…
