Introduction: It is unknown whether progressive resistance training (PRT) improves cognitive function in adults with cerebral small vessel disease and mild cognitive impairment (i.e., subcortical vascular cognitive impairment [SVCI]). Methods: We conducted a 12-month randomized trial comparing P ...

Background: Hearing loss is one of the largest potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia and is linked with poor cognitive-motor dual-task performance (e.g., walking while performing a cognitive task). Hearing loss is more prevalent and severe in males, whereas dementia is more prevalent i ...

Introduction: The relationship between biological sex, considered a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), and bilingualism, a resilience factor, is unclear. We assessed this relationship in 335 individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a Canadian cohort. Methods: We used univariate analysis and structural equation modelling to study the ...

Background: Older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have a higher risk of gait impairments and falls; yet, the effects of multimodal interventions, including combinations of exercises with cognitive training, on improving their mobility remain unclear. Objectives: To investigate the sy ...

BackgroundOlfactory identification decline is a known early marker of Alzheimer's disease and is already present at the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) stage. While being linked with episodic memory, its predictive value for cognitive performance and distinguishing between clinical stages remains unclear.ObjectiveThis study examined (1) the predictive ...

While blink analysis was traditionally conducted within vision research, recent studies suggest that blinks might reflect a more general cognitive strategy for resource allocation, including with auditory tasks, but its use within the fields of Audiology or Psychoacoustics remains scarce and its interpretation largely speculative. It is hypothesized that ...

Loss of brain tissues and cognitive abilities are natural processes of aging, but longitudinal studies are limited. We explored the longitudinal association between global and regional brain measures with cognitive abilities among individuals with normal cognitive status, mild cognitive impairment, and Alzheimer's Disease, including those with stable ...

Introduction: The 24-hour activity cycle (24-HAC) includes physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep. The 24-HAC composition and brain health relationship in adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) remains underexplored. We examined associations between 24-HAC composition and gray matter (GM) volume. Methods: Cross-sectional study in ...

Purpose: Image-guided neurosurgery demands precise depth perception to minimize cognitive burden during intricate navigational tasks. Existing evaluation methods rely heavily on subjective user feedback, which can be biased and inconsistent. This study uses a physiological measure via electroencephalography (EEG), to quantify cognitive load when using nov ...

Background: Lifestyle factors like exercise and cognitive stimulation might help improve cognitive performance in older adults. However, studies investigating this, reported mixed results. Most of the data supporting the benefit of exercise comes from cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, or s ...
