生病时常感到嗜睡，这是一种保守的适应性反应有助于机体恢复。然而，介导“疾病诱发睡眠”的具体脑干神经环路长期不明。基于此，2025年12月10日，美国加州大学伯克利分校神经科学系丹扬教授&深圳医学科学院姚园园教授研究团队在Science Advances杂志发表了“Brainstem circuit for sickness-induced ...

Translating the behavioural output of the nervous system into movement involves interaction between brain and spinal cord. The brainstem provides an essential bridge between the two structures, but ...

Oligodendrocytes with different morphological features work together to support precise binaural integration for sound localization in the chick brainstem auditory circuit.

The evolutionarily ancient part of the brain that controls breathing and heart rate also regulates the immune system — a discovery about the brain-body axis made by experts on taste. Last month, ...

A new study co-led by Mass General Brigham researchers points to a promising new type of auditory brainstem implant (ABI) that could benefit people who are deaf due to Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) ...

A recent study reveals long-term microstructural abnormalities in the brainstem of people with ongoing health problems following a COVID-19 infection, suggesting neuroinflammation in the brainstem may ...

An auditory brainstem implant converts sound into an electrical signal and sends it to the brainstem, so your brain can create the sense of sound. An auditory brainstem implant (ABI) is a treatment ...

Damage to the brainstem – the brain's 'control center' – is behind long-lasting physical and psychiatric effects of severe Covid-19 infection, a study suggests. Using ultra-high-resolution scanners ...

Discover the causes of headaches, their triggers, and when to seek medical attention for severe symptoms.

The waveforms of impulses are produced at the brainstem in response to the sound stimulus. These waveforms are recorded by the electrodes that are placed over the scalp at various places as follows: ...
