Masticatory function and cognitive function
Okajimas Folia Anatomica Japonica, 2010 Recent studies have suggest that masticatory (chewing) function is useful for maintaining neurocognitive function in the elderly. For example, a reduced ability to masticate, such as that resulting from toothlessness or soft-diet feeding, causes learning and memory deficits in aged animals and pathologic changes in the hippocampus.

Sex and cognition: gender and cognitive functions [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2016 Gender stereotypes hold that males outperform females in mathematics and spatial tests, and females outperform males on verbal tests. According to meta-analyses, however, among both children and adults, females perform equally to males on mathematics assessments.

Hypertension and Cognitive Function
Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2008 Arterial hypertension, cerebrovascular disease, and dementia are related pathologies. This paper has reviewed comparatively the incidence of arterial hypertension and adult-onset dementia disorders. Hypertension is associated with cerebrovascular disease, which is in turn associated with dementia.

Integrated VASO and perfusion contrast: A new tool for laminar functional MRI
NeuroImage, 2020 Earlier research in cats has shown that both cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) can be used to identify layer-dependent fMRI activation with spatial specificity superior to gradient-echo blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast

Cognitive function and hypertension [PDF]
Journal of Human Hypertension, 2008 The importance of lowering blood pressure (BP) in hypertensive subjects is well known but the relationship between hypertension and cognitive function is controversial. This article reviews the role of hypertension in the aetiology of cognitive impairment and the relationships between BP, cerebral perfusion and cognition. It also summarizes findings of

Does Motor Memory Reactivation through Practice and Post-Learning Sleep Modulate Consolidation?
Clocks & Sleep, 2023 Retrieving previously stored information makes memory traces labile again and can trigger restabilization in a strengthened or weakened form depending on the reactivation condition.

Butyrylcholinesterase and Cognitive Function
International Psychogeriatrics, 2001 Butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) is expressed in brain structures involved in cognition, but the effect of selective BuChE inhibitors on human cognitive function is unknown. We report a patient whose cognitive function deteriorated following a reduction and improved following reinstitution of ethopropazine, a selective BuChE inhibitor.

Cognitive function in COPD [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 2010 In order to characterise the overall clinical picture of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) a better understanding of all relevant comorbidities is required. It is increasingly recognised that COPD is a multi-component disease, but little attention has been paid to its effects on cognitive function.Cognitive dysfunction is associated with ...
