Longitudinal Associations between Physical and Cognitive Performance ...

In turn, baseline physical impairment was only marginally associated with rate of cognitive decline across various cognitive domains. The cognitive -functional association is likely to operate in the direction of cognitive impairment to physical decline although physical impairment may also play a role in cognitive decline /dementia.

Predictors of cognitive and physical decline

We chose to use a prospective longitudinal approach because participants at baseline reported no difficulty with physical function or cognitive impairment , and in this presumably healthy sample we could evaluate subsequent decline .
To assess the directionality of the association between physical and cognitive decline in later life, we compared patterns of decline in performance across groups defined by baseline presence of ...

Cognitive and physical declines and falls in older people with and ...
The MCI and cognitive fluctuating groups demonstrated cognitive decline , whereas the cognitively normal group did not. The MCI group had worse physical function than the cognitively normal group at baseline but decline over time in physical performance was similar across all groups.
The association of baseline physical activity and cognition or specific cognitive domain (ie, executive function , episodic memory, processing speed, verbal fluency and naming, verbal ability, working memory, and visuospatial ability) at follow-up.

The effect of baseline cognition and delirium on long
There is an unmet public health need to understand better the relationship between baseline cognitive function , the occurrence and severity of delirium, and subsequent cognitive decline . Our aim was to quantify the relationship between baseline cognition and delirium and follow-up cognitive impairment .
These findings suggest that physical activity might postpone cognitive decline at a population health level but only to a very small extent. This systematic review and meta-analysis examines how length of follow-up, baseline age, physical activity amount, and study quality modify the longitudinal associations of physical activity with cognitionz.

Baseline predictors of neurophysiological response to combined physical ...
Background Our previous study demonstrated that a 6-month combined physical and cognitive training program improved mismatch negativity (MMN)—an event-related potential reflecting the brain's automatic detection of environmental changes—in older adults with subjective cognitive decline (SCD). However, not all individuals benefited equally from the intervention. Identifying baseline ...







AbstractSection Aim The patterns of age-related cognitive decline among cognitively normal older adults and how their cognitive function has changed over the past decade remain unclear. AbstractSection Findings Attention, processing speed, and working/executive function indices exhibited significant declines beginning in the early 70 s, earlier than in other cognitive domains. A longitudinal ...
