Alcohol consumption is associated with reduced creatine levels in the hippocampus of older adults
(2019-11)Besides its well established susceptibility to ageing, the hippocampus has also been shown to be affected by alcohol consumption. Proton spectroscopy (1H-MRS) of the hippocampus, particularly at high-field 7T MRI, may ... -
Associations between modifiable risk factors and white matter of the aging brain: insights from diffusion tensor imaging studies
(2019-08)There is increasing interest in factors that may modulate white matter (WM) breakdown and, consequentially, age-related cognitive and behavioral deficits. Recent diffusion tensor imaging studies have examined the relationship ... -
Connections Between Insomnia and Cognitive Aging.
(2019-06)Insomnia is a common sleep disorder among older adults, and a risk factor for poor physical and mental health. However, the relationship between insomnia and cognitive health is not well understood. Here, we review ... -
Individual variation in brain microstructural-cognition relationships in aging
(2021-02)While all individuals are susceptible to age-related cognitive decline, significant inter- and intra-individual variability exists. However, the sources of this variation remain poorly understood. Here, we examined the ... -
Prediction of brain age and cognitive age: quantifying brain and cognitive maintenance in aging
(2020-06)The concept of brain maintenance refers to the preservation of brain integrity in older age, whilecognitive reserverefers to the capacity to maintain cognition in the presence of neurodegeneration or aging-related brain ... -
Right Lateralized Brain Reserve Offsets Age-Related Deficits in Ignoring Distraction
(2020-09)Age-related deterioration of attention decreases the ability to stay focused on the task at hand due to less efficient selection of relevant information and increased distractibility in the face of irrelevant, but salient ... -
Sleep duration over 28 years, cognition, gray matter volume, and white matter microstructure: a prospective cohort study
(2020-01)Study Objectives To examine the association between sleep duration trajectories over 28 years and measures of cognition, gray matter volume, and white matter microstructure. We hypothesize that consistently meeting sleep ...
