Cognitive training in MCI may stimulate pre-existing neural reserves or recruit neural
circuitry as “compensatory scaffolding” prompting neuroplastic reorganization to meet task …

Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) or presbycusis, as the third leading cause of chronic
disability in older adults, has been shown to be associated with predisposing cognitive …

The aging brain is shaped by many structural and functional alterations. Recent cross-
disciplinary efforts have uncovered powerful and integrated adaptive mechanisms that …

Cognitive interventions may improve cognition, delay age-related cognitive declines, and
improve quality of life for older adults. The current meta-analysis was conducted to update …

This condensed review gives an overview about two methodological approaches to study
the impact of physical activity on cognition in elderly, namely cross-sectional studies and …

Importance Falls increase morbidity and mortality in adults 65 years and older. The role of
dance-based mind-motor activities in preventing falls among healthy older adults is not well …

During aging, the prefrontal cortex (PFC) undergoes age-dependent neuronal changes
influencing cognitive and motor functions. Motor-learning interventions are hypothesized to …

Reduced neurogenesis in the aging mammalian hippocampus has been linked to cognitive
deficits and increased risk of dementia. We utilized postmortem human hippocampal tissue …

Human aging is associated with structural and functional brain deteriorations and a
corresponding cognitive decline. Exergaming (ie, physically active video-gaming) has been …

Participation in organized sports is promoted as a means of increasing physical activity
levels and reducing chronic disease risk in adults. Hard martial arts practice (ie using body …
