Cognitive impairment in the elderly encompasses many forms, ranging from subtle impairments in otherwise cognitively healthy individuals through mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Brain structural and functional changes underlie the observed cognitive impairment. Complementary to the clinical observation, biomarkers have been proposed as in vivo indicators of the underlying pathophysiology and neurobiological changes in a sufficiently reliable manner that they could be used to detect, track, and predict the disease course over time.

The foundations for later-life cognitive health are often laid decades prior to the first symptoms of cognitive decline, therefore preventative strategies should be implemented early in life. Structured resistance training shows promise at reducing dementia risk and has been associated with enhanced cognitive function and biomarker profiles. More specifically, intense acute resistance exercise and chronic resistance training may increase levels of growth factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and results in progressive cognitive decline, particularly in regards to memory (National Institute on Aging, 2012).

Chronic in ammation and variations in blood flow have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. It is also possible that inflammatory and rheological processes are involved in the development of mild cognitive impairment and dementia, either through their association with vascular disease or via some other, more direct effect on the brain. Evidence is increasing for a causal relationship between Alzheimer's disease and inflammation, possibly related to inflammatory activation of microglia. Inflammatory processes may also be involved in the pathogenesis of cerebral small ve

Introduction. Restoring a sensory function in older adults might allow a significant improvement in their cognitive status. Although specific clinical conditions could compromise management and drastically reduce the chance of acceptable outcomes, auditory rehabilitation with cochlear implants or hearing aids still remains one of the most effectiveness procedure. Advances in research and technology suggest a functional “adaptation” in central processes that could influence other related or not strictly related activities, such as memory and working memory, frontal and pre-frontal processes, or

Individuals with intellectual disability have a greater risk of developing dementia.The diagnosis of dementia relies on accurate testing of cognitive function however existing tests have limited utility in people whose intellectual disability is moderate or greater. A new test was developed and underwent preliminary testing to determine use across a wider ability spectrum. The Cognitive Baseline & Screener for People with Intellectual Disability (CBS-ID) was administered to a sample of 17 dyads (n=34) (people with intellectual disability (who completed CBS-ID) and caregivers (who provided an i
