Two Nature Neuroscience studies show that abdominal contractions during movement in mice can physically shift brain structures and drive cerebrospinal fluid flow. The Rochester-led work found core ...

Research reveals strong connections between muscle strength and cognitive function in patients with COPD, highlighting the potential for rehabilitation strategies. There is a relationship between ...

A Penn State study in Nature Neuroscience suggests that abdominal muscle contractions may promote brain health by driving cerebrospinal fluid flow that clears neural waste. Researchers found that even ...

When labor begins, the uterus must coordinate rhythmic, well-timed contractions to deliver the baby safely. While hormones such as progesterone and oxytocin are key contributors to that process, ...
