People with both cavities and gum disease had an 86% higher risk of ischemic stroke than those with healthy mouths, according to research published October 22, 2025, in Neurology Open Access. The two-decade study of 5,986 adults linked poor oral health to higher rates of major cardiovascular events, while emphasizing the findings show association, not causation.

Research published October 22, 2025, in Neurology® Open Access reports that older adults with gum disease had more white matter hyperintensities—a marker of tissue damage—than peers without gum disease, even after accounting for other risks.
DMT reduces stroke damage in animal and cell studies
AI에 의해 보고됨
Researchers in Hungary have found that DMT, a natural psychoactive compound, significantly mitigates brain damage from stroke in animal models and cell cultures. The molecule restores the blood-brain barrier and curbs inflammation, potentially complementing current treatments. These discoveries, published in Science Advances, highlight DMT's therapeutic promise amid limited stroke options.
