Adjunctive traditional Chinese medicine for ischemic stroke: a systematic review with structured narrative synthesis and GRADE assessment of randomized controlled trials

A structured systematic review evaluates randomized trials of specific traditional Chinese medicine formulations used alongside standard care for ischemic stroke across acute, recovery, and prevention stages.

Key takeaways
  • We searched seven bibliographic databases and one clinical trial registry to 8 April 2026.
  • Nine RCTs enrolling 12,348 randomized participants were eligible.
  • Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and long-term disability.

AISenescent Microglia Secrete DLK1, Which Causes Dysfunction in the Aging Brain (Fight Aging!)

Senescent Microglia Secrete DLK1, Which Causes Dysfunction in the Aging Brain

Examines how senescent microglia secrete a soluble Notch ligand that impairs oligodendrocytes and neuronal function in aging brains.

Key takeaways
  • Senescent microglia with shortened telomeres secrete increased soluble DLK1 into cerebrospinal fluid.
  • Elevated sDLK1 in vivo caused hypomyelination and blocked oligodendrocyte lineage progression.
  • SDLK1 impaired oligodendrocyte maturation and altered calcium signaling in human iPSC-derived neurons.
