This study observed 3,849 people who had narrowing in their brain arteries but no prior stroke symptoms. Researchers used routine brain scans and memory tests to track how these plaques change over time. The goal was to learn which plaques are most dangerous and to create better …

This completed survey aimed to understand how fevers affect seizures in children with CDKL5 deficiency disorder, a rare genetic condition. Researchers collected information from 131 families to learn if seizures get worse during or after a fever. The goal is to use this knowledge…
