Children with breath-holding spells undergo unnecessary diagnostic interventions
Breath-holding spells are common in young children and are benign. Yet children often undergo unnecessary diagnostic interventions when seeking medical care. This is because there are no national or international guidelines on how to assess children in these cases. A team of researchers at Lund University, Sweden has now proposed guidelines to reduce the number of emergency and unplanned medical v

Cell-specific Biomarkers in the Blood Reflect What Happens in the Brain During Stroke
By analysing small microvesicles that cells release to communicate with their surroundings in the blood, researchers at Lund University map what happens in the brains of stroke patients. The study published in the scientific journal Stroke expands our understanding of stroke and opens doors to new treatment strategies. Ischemic stroke, caused by a blood clot in the brain, is the leading cause of
