New research suggests that resetting the body's circadian rhythm may support brain recovery after a stroke. The findings point to the internal clock as a possible factor in how well the brain heals, raising the prospect of timing-based therapies for stroke rehabilitation. The story is being shared by science and health outlets covering the study.
- 2Blood thinners cut atrial fibrillation risk by 69%▼Atrial fibrillation patients saw 69% lower risk with common blood thinners
New findings reported by ScienceDaily indicate that atrial fibrillation patients taking common blood thinners saw a 69% lower risk, presumably of stroke or related complications. The figure is drawing attention among patients and clinicians, as anticoagulant guidelines continue to be debated and researchers look for clearer evidence on who benefits most from long-term blood thinner treatment.
- 3Stopping GLP-1 drugs may raise heart attack and stroke risk●Stopping GLP-1 drugs may raise heart attack and stroke risk, study finds
A new study finds that people who stop taking GLP-1 weight-loss and diabetes drugs, such as Ozempic and Wegovy, may face an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. The findings suggest the cardiovascular benefits of these medications depend on continued use, raising questions about how patients should manage long-term treatment.
