What mechanisms link poor sleep quality to accelerated ePVS burden increase in TBI patients?

OPEN

The study shows TBI patients with poor sleep have higher age-related ePVS burden increase, attributed to glymphatic dysfunction, but the specific mechanistic pathways connecting sleep disturbance to perivascular space enlargement remain unexplained. Understanding this mechanism could inform sleep-targeted interventions for TBI recovery.
