From ADHD to concussions and cognitive decline, these stories stood out for their newsworthiness.
LearningRx, the world’s largest personal brain training company, has released its annual list of the biggest brain-related stories of 2019. This year’s list touches on a variety of topics, including ADHD, concussions, and cognitive decline.
One of the biggest stories focuses on a multifaceted intervention that created neural changes and improvements in seniors with cognitive decline. The key findings include:
- Improvement and stability in cognition. After the nine-month intervention, three of the five patients were no longer classified as cognitively impaired, while a fourth patient improved from moderately-to-severely impaired to mildly impaired. The fifth patient who entered the study with Stage 2 Alzheimer’s remained stable.
- Improved daily functioning and outlook. Patients reported improved memory, attention, mental clarity, as well as increased energy, better mood, and improved outlook on life.
- Changes in brain connectivity visible on fMRI. fMRI analyses revealed changes in the brain that suggest improved efficiency, as well as changes in network connectivity that correlated with changes found on neuropsychological tests.
