Cortical excitability and the aging brain: toward a biomarker of cognitive resilience

Frontiers in Psychology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 16

Опубликована: Фев. 18, 2025

This perspective article addresses the potential use of cortical excitability (CE) as an indicator cognitive health in aging people. Changes CE may be considered a sign resilience to decline old age. The authors describe research on and its link function older adults emphasize that it is promising, non-invasive measure healthy aging. They also address current challenges implementation, need for standardized measurement protocols possible future avenues research. If properly considered, could pave way early detection facilitate targeted interventions promote resilience.

Neurosciences and Sports Rehabilitation in ACLR: A Narrative Review on Winning Alliance Strategies and Connecting the Dots

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 10(2), С. 119 - 119

Опубликована: Апрель 2, 2025

This narrative review explores the significant evolution of sports rehabilitation, tracing its trajectory from basic exercise therapies early 20th century to advanced, neuroplasticity-driven approaches 21st century, with a specific focus on anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The primary aim is understand how neuroplasticity, motor control, and sensorimotor retraining can optimize recovery, reduce reinjury risk, enhance long-term athletic performance, synthesize current rehabilitation strategies that integrate innovative technologies, such as robotics, virtual reality (VR), biofeedback systems, address neurocognitive deficits contribute alarmingly high rates (9–29%) observed in young athletes post-ACLR. These include impaired proprioception, psychological factors like fear reinjury. methodology employed involves peer-reviewed literature databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web Science. synthesis findings underscores importance holistic approaches, targeted proprioceptive exercises, dual-task drills, immersive VR training, enhancing integration, decision-making, athlete confidence. Furthermore, this highlights critical need for monitoring interdisciplinary collaboration between neuroscientists, physiotherapists, engineers refine protocols ensure sustained recovery. By leveraging neuroplasticity advanced field shift purely physical restoration comprehensive recovery models significantly risks performance.

Physiological Entrainment: A Key Mind–Body Mechanism for Cognitive, Motor and Affective Functioning, and Well-Being

Brain Sciences, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15(1), С. 3 - 3

The human sensorimotor system can naturally synchronize with environmental rhythms, such as light pulses or sound beats. Several studies showed that different styles and tempos of music, other rhythmic stimuli, have an impact on physiological including electrocortical brain activity, heart rate, motor coordination. Such synchronization, also known the "entrainment effect", has been identified a crucial mechanism impacting cognitive, motor, affective functioning. This review examines theoretical empirical contributions to literature entrainment, particular focus mechanisms underlying this phenomenon its role in functions. We address inconsistent terminology used evaluate range measurement approaches assess entrainment phenomena. Finally, we propose definition "physiological entrainment" emphasizes fundamental encompasses interactions between body environment, support information processing across bodily systems sustain adaptive responses. reviewed recent through lens "embodied cognition" framework, offering unified perspective entrainment. Evidence from current suggests produces measurable effects, especially neural oscillations, rate variability, synchronization. Eventually, changes cognitive processing, functioning, Physiological emerges mind-body connection. Entrainment-based interventions may be promote well-being by enhancing functions, suggesting potential rehabilitative mental health.
