The role of diet in cognitive decline

Journal of Neural Transmission, 2003
Recent findings suggest a possible role of diet in age-related cognitive decline, and cognitive impairment of both degenerative (Alzheimer's disease, AD) or vascular origin.

Lacunar infarct and cognitive decline

Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics, 2011
Lacunar infarcts or lacunes result from occlusion of a single penetrating artery and account for approximately a quarter of cerebral infarctions. The short-term prognosis of symptomatic lacunar infarct is favorable - that is, low early mortality and a high proportion of symptom-free patients at hospital discharge - but the prognosis in the mid- and ...

Surgical menopause and cognitive decline

Climacteric, 2014
Aging is the strongest risk factor for cognitive decline. The perimenopausal period puts women in a more vulnerable state in regard to certain functions such as memory. Also, the Women's Health Initiative Memory Study (WHIMS) pointed at some cognitive adverse effects of postmenopausal hormone therapy, but these results were not relevant for the peri ...

Sleep Alterations and Cognitive Decline

Seminars in Neurology
AbstractSleep disturbances and cognitive decline are intricately connected, and both are prevalent in aging populations and individuals with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias. Sleep is vital for cognitive functions including memory consolidation, executive function, and attention.
