Image: This infographic illustrates the connection between the brain, central nervous system and other organs and how they interact with a person\'s gut microbes to show different patterns from people with high blood pressure plus depression; high blood pressure without depression; depression with healthy blood pressure; or healthy subjects without depression or high blood pressure (Photo courtesy of Professor Bruce R. Stevens, PhD).

Gut Bacteria Linked to High Blood Pressure and Depression

The microbiome is the genetic material of all the microbes, bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses that live on and inside the human body. The number of genes in all the microbes in one person's microbiome is 200 times the number of genes in the human genome. More...

New Blood Test Helps Detect Brain Injury in Minutes

After traumatic brain injury (TBI), plasma concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) correlates with intracranial injury visible on computerized axial tomography (CT) scan. Some patients with suspected TBI with normal CT findings show pathology on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). More...
