Moreover, this research also suggests that environmental enrichment leads to a greater level of cognitive reserve, the brain's resilience to the effects of conditions such as aging and dementia. Research on humans suggests that lack of stimulation delays and impairs cognitive development.
The results indicate that neurogenesis was increased in the animals that were exposed to the enriched environment, in comparison to animals in the standard environment. This outcome indicates that environmental enrichment can indeed increase neurogenesis and reverse the cognitive decline. [21]
Good sleep is crucial for your overall health, but new research suggests it could impact your dementia risk, too. That’s the major takeaway from a November 2024 study published in the journal ...
A new study found the biggest risk factors and predictors at 60 for dementia at 80. Neurologists weigh in on the research and share ways to prevent dementia.
The prevention of dementia involves reducing the number of risk factors for the development of dementia, and is a global health priority needing a global response. [1] [2] Initiatives include the establishment of the International Research Network on Dementia Prevention (IRNDP) [3] which aims to link researchers in this field globally, and the establishment of the Global Dementia Observatory ...
For instance, auditory creates stronger memory abilities than visual. This is shown by the higher recency and primacy effects of an auditory recall test compared to that of a visual test. Research has shown that auditory training, through instrumental musical activity or practice, can help preserve memory abilities as one ages. Specifically, in ...
Dementia impacts nearly seven million older adults in the U.S. But the devastating condition often progresses slowly, making it difficult to know if a loved one is struggling early on. However ...
