A new USC-led study suggests that assessing blood vessel health should be included in dementia diagnostics. A new USC-led ...

Association of Medial Temporal Lobe Cerebrovascular Reactivity and Memory Function in Older Adults With and Without Cognitive Impairment. Neurology , 2025; 104 (1) DOI: 10.1212/WNL ...

Mild cognitive impairment is linked to blood vessel dysfunction in the brain's temporal lobes—the seat of memory—according to a new USC-led study. The findings, seen in people with and without ...
