Effects of Chronic Hypertension on Mitochondrial Energy Metabolism in the Cerebral Cortex of Normal and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats Background Introduction Chronic hypertension has destructive structural and functional consequences for cerebral vessels and brain parenchyma. Hypertension impairs cerebrovascular autoregulation (Ferrari & Villa, 2...

Study on the Improvement of Cognitive Function in ICV-STZ-Induced Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model by Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharides Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory loss, personality changes, and emotion...

The Impact of Music Training on Language Perception in Older Adults Under Global Aging Challenges Research Background As global population aging accelerates, the decline in language perception ability of older adults in noisy environments has become a notable issue. Older adults, even with normal hearing, often encounter the “cocktail party problem...

Research Overview and Background With the acceleration of global aging, the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases is also rising significantly. Elderly people over 65 are particularly susceptible to cognitive decline caused by cerebral ischemia, making Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion (CCH) a major cause of cognitive impairment and Vascular ...

Association Study of Perioperative IL8 and IL18 Levels with Brain Basal Ganglia Atrophy Three Months After Surgery Background In recent years, an increasing number of studies have shown that surgical procedures may accelerate brain atrophy. Meanwhile, the relationship between systemic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases has also received co...

Research Report on the Long-term Relationship between Time Perspective and Life Satisfaction in Adulthood Research Background Time perspective is an important predictor of human well-being. However, time perspective itself changes with development. A future-dominated time perspective gradually gives way to a present and past-focused perspective as ...

Analysis of Trend Changes in Static Balance of Parkinson’s Disease Patients to Distinguish Drug States Introduction Maintaining static body balance is crucial for daily living, which requires coordination between different body segments. Any change or decline in balance ability increases the risk of falling. Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) e...

Application of Wearable Biofeedback Device in Gait Assessment for Parkinson’s Disease Patients: A Case Series Study Research Background Patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) often exhibit abnormal gait patterns, severely affecting their independence and quality of life. Gait abnormalities primarily manifest as reduced stride length, increased step...

Nanopolymer Targeting NF-κB and NLRP3 Reduces Neuroinflammation and Enhances Cognitive Function in Aging and Tauopathy Research Background Aging is a major risk factor for cognitive decline and most neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). These cognitive declines are closely related to the pathological aggregation of Tau prote...
