Without the oxygen in blood, brain cells start dying within minutes.

Members phkrause Posted March 8, 2025 Author Members Posted March 8, 2025 The Warning Signs of a Stroke When you have a stroke, your brain suddenly stops getting the blood and oxygen it needs. The most common cause is a blocked artery in your brain. Strokes also can be caused by bleeding in the brain, which not only disrupts normal blood flow, but also puts harmful pressure on brain tissues. In either kind of stroke, your brain cells can be damaged, potentially leading to disability or even death. https://www.webmd.com/stroke/signs-of-stroke?

Asia Joe Posted March 11, 2025 Posted March 11, 2025 The number one way to prevent a stroke is monitor your blood pressure. The people I know who have had strokes were not monitoring their blood pressure. Once a week is enough. Devices are cheap. It takes only a few seconds. phkrause 1 Quote
Members phkrause Posted April 2, 2025 Author Members Posted April 2, 2025 A stroke survivor speaks again with the help of an experimental brain-computer implant Scientists have developed a device that can translate thoughts about speech into spoken words in real time. Although it’s experimental, they hope the brain-computer interface could someday help give voice to those unable to speak. Read more. Why this matters: A new study described testing the device on a 47-year-old woman with quadriplegia who couldn’t speak for 18 years after a stroke. Doctors implanted it in her brain during surgery as part of a clinical trial. It “converts her intent to speak into fluent sentences,” said Gopala Anumanchipalli, a co-author of the study published Monday in the journal Nature Neuroscience. A team in California recorded the woman’s brain activity using electrodes while she spoke sentences silently in her brain. The scientists used a synthesizer they built using her voice before her injury to create a speech sound that she would have spoken. They trained an AI model that translates neural activity into units of sound. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
