Cleaning the brain through turbulent glymphatic flow: The washing machine hypothesis.
In a thought experiment, a "washing machine" model is proposed based on turbulent flow from complex multi-dimensional forces to characterize fluid dynamics in the brain. The glymphatic system's hypothetical role in this system is illustrated in a series of diagrams. Implications of this model are discussed in terms of normal physiology and a variety of pathologic conditions such as brain atrophy and Alzheimer disease.
期刊介绍:
The Journal contains original articles, special features (see below), and information regarding the International Society of Lymphology. It seeks original papers dealing with clinical and basic studies of the lymphatic system and its disorders including related fields. Articles are accepted for external review and publication on the condition that they are contributed to Lymphology only and that no substantial part has been or will be published elsewhere.
