Online social network sites provide possibilities to enhance social relationships and engage in cognitive activities for older adults. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between the use of one social network site, Facebook, and cognitive functions in older adults considering different dimensions of Facebook use together with different cognitive functions. Seventy healthy older adults completed the use of Facebook form, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, and Social Network Index. Their cognitive functions were measured with Digit Span Tasks, Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test, Letter and Category Fluency Tests, Stroop Test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test, and Trail Making Test (TMT-A and TMT-B). After controlling for age, gender, education level, we found that Facebook users performed better on TMT-A compared to non-users. Among Facebook users, the length of having an account, the network size, the daily duration of use, and the frequency of active and passive use correlated with cognitive performance after controlling offline sociality. These findings, which need confirmation by experimental and longitudinal studies, suggested that being connected to a larger network via more prolonged and active use of social media might be associated with higher cognitive functioning.

This study investigates the efficacy of VR-based cognitive training using the game Beat Saber in enhancing cognitive functions in amateur e-athletes. Participants were divided into two groups, undergoing either 8-day or 28-day training. Significant improvements were observed in reaction time (RT) and eye-hand coordination (EHC) for both groups. Notably, cognitive gains in EHC were maintained over time, indicating the durability of training effects. The lack of significant differences between the short-term and long-term training outcomes suggests that even brief, intensive VR training can lead to substantial cognitive improvements, potentially obviating the need for extended training periods. The findings underscore the potential of immersive VR games like Beat Saber as effective tools for cognitive training. This study also highlights the relevance of VR technology beyond entertainment, demonstrating its application in cognitive enhancement. Given the rising popularity of esports and VR, integrating such technologies into cognitive training programs offers a promising avenue for improving cognitive functions in younger populations familiar with virtual environments. The results suggest that VR-based interventions can enhance cognitive functions which are crucial for both competitive esports and general cognitive functioning, making VR a versatile tool in various training contexts. Further research is recommended to explore the generalizability of these findings to other VR games and different populations.

Integrating natural elements into built environments has enhanced comfort and well-being. Healthcare environments with unique requirements for infection control, patient privacy, and hygiene present a distinct context. By connecting occupants to the outdoors, windows play a crucial role in fostering a more restorative and cognitively supportive healthcare environment. This study investigates the impact of different window views on cognitive functions and perceived comfort related to indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in healthcare spaces during the cooling season. A sample of 133 participants, including healthcare providers and inpatients, were recruited from eight healthcare buildings in Amman, Jordan. Self-administered surveys assessed comfort perception, while continuous physical measures recorded indoor temperature, relative humidity, and CO2. A standardised objective test evaluated participants' cognitive abilities across five aspects: short-term memory, language, attention, executive function, and visuospatial skills. Findings revealed that participants exposed to natural views reported significantly higher comfort perception of IEQ and cognitive functions than those in rooms without windows or with urban views. Patients consistently reported lower comfort perception and cognitive function than healthcare providers across all window view types. Regression analysis indicated a positive correlation between comfort perception and cognitive function for patients (R2 = 0.6) and healthcare providers (R2 = 0.75). In patient rooms, 20 % of monitored temperatures fell below 19 degrees C, suggesting potential overcooling. The originality of this paper lies in a desire to highlight the importance of window view considerations in healthcare settings, offering insights into improving comfort perception and supporting cognitive functions in both patients and healthcare providers.

Objective: The study worked with depressive symptoms, anxiety score and cognitive functions in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients treated with ***: Eighty-one subjects with OSA and without psychiatric comorbidity were treated with CPAP for one year and completed the following scales and cognitive tests: Trail Making Test, Verbal Fluency Test, d2 Test, Beck Depression Inventory-II and Beck Anxiety Inventory. MINI ruled out psychiatric disorder. At the two months check-up, subjects were re-evaluated for depressive and anxiety symptoms, and after one year of CPAP treatment, subjects repeated cognitive tests and scales. Data about therapy adherence and effectiveness were obtained from the patient's CPAP machines. Results: The study was completed by 59 CPAP adherent patients and eight non-adherent patients. CPAP therapy effectiveness was verified in all patients by decreasing the apnea-hypopnoea index below 5 and/or 10% of baseline values. The adherent patients significantly improved depressive and anxiety symptoms. There was also an improvement in overall performance in the attention test;however, performance in many individual items did not change. The adherent patients also improved verbal fluency and in the Part B of the Trail making test. The non-adherent group significantly increased the number of mistakes made in the d2 test;other resultsConclusion: According to our results, OSA patients' mood, anxiety and certain cognitive domains improved during the one-year therapy with CPAP.

Background: cognitive impairments in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) are common and aggravate dualtask (DT) performance. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of online Pilates training on cognitive functions and the DT performance of balance, walking, and functional mobility in PwMS. Method: In this randomized controlled trial, forty-six PwMS were recruited and randomly allocated into two groups. The Online Pilates group (OPG) received Pilates training via videoconferences three days per week during six weeks at home. The control group (CG) was a waitlist with no Pilates treatment. cognitive functions were assessed with Montreal cognitive Asssessment (MoCA), The Trail Making Test (TMT), and The Stroop Test (ST). DT performance was assessed with mental tracking and verbal fluency during postural stability (PS), walking, and functional mobility. Results: At the end of six weeks, the interaction effects (time x group) revealed significant differences for MoCA (p = 0.024), TMT-B (p = 0.012), ST (p <= 0.012), PS-with mental tracking (p = 0.004), PS-with verbal fluency (p = 0.003), cadence-with mental tracking (p = 0.048), and functional mobility-with mental tracking (p = 0.043) in favor of the OPG. Additionally, MoCA, TMT, ST, and DT performance during balance and functional mobility significantly improved in after six-week online Pilates training, but did not in CG. Conclusion: Pilates training via videoconference was effective in the improvement of cognitive functions and DT performance in PwMS. Online Pilates may be considered for improving cognitive impairments and DT performances in PwMS with barriers to accessing clinics. Trial registration: ***: NCT06462339

Background: cognitive dysfunction is prevalent but inadequately treated in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). Central vestibular functions are associated with multiple cognitive domains in PwMS, even when controlling for disability status. To our knowledge, the effectiveness of vestibular training on cognition in PwMS has never been explored. The study's purpose was to determine the effect of vestibular training on PwMS's cognitive functions. Methods: Forty PwMS with relapsing-remitting MS, primarily fatigued, were randomly divided into two equal groups. The control group (GI) was treated with aerobic endurance exercises using stationary bicycle training. The study group (GII) was treated with aerobic endurance exercises as GI in addition to a designed vestibular training program. Outcome measures of cognition were assessed preand post-treatment using the Arabic version of Brief International cognitive Assessment for MS (BICAMS-A) and serum Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Results: Post-treatment, there was a significant increase of oral Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT), California Verbal Learning Test II (CVLT-II), revised Brief Visuospatial retention Test (BVRT-R) of BICAMS-A and serum BDNF in both study and control groups. There was a significant increase in CVLT-II, BVRT-R of BICAMS-A and serum BDNF in the study group compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Vestibular training is an effective and innovative approach for improving cognitive functions in PwMS. Trial registration: PACTR202311670782148.

BackgroundEpilepsy is a brain disorder affecting nearly 65 million people worldwide. It is characterized by sudden, transient, and uncontrolled episodes of brain dysfunction secondary to hypersynchronous abnormal discharge of cortical neuronal cells resulting in motor, sensory, and behavioral manifestations. cognitive deterioration can occur in approximately 70-80% of epileptic patients with a variety of epilepsy-related characteristics being implicated. This study aimed to assess cognitive functions in a sample of patients with generalized tonic-clonic epilepsy and determine its relation to different epilepsy-related characteristics. It was designed as a case-control cross-sectional study in which 106 participants were enrolled and divided into two groups: a case group of fifty-three patients diagnosed with generalized tonic-clonic epilepsy and a control group including fifty-three healthy subjects. Sociodemographic and epilepsy-related characteristics and a variety of cognitive functions were assessed for both *** patients were significantly suffering from impairment in attention, memory, visuospatial (P = 0.001), and language functions (P = 0.018) compared to the healthy control *** patients are significantly suffering from cognitive impairment with a variety of contributing epilepsy-related characteristics.

Background Depression affects twice as many women as men. Risk factors for depression certainly impact this difference, but their strong interconnectedness challenges the assessment of standalone contributions. Network models allow the identification of systematic independent relationships between individual symptoms and risk factors. This study aimed to evaluate whether the extended networks of depressive symptoms, cognitive functions, and leisure activities in like-sex twins differ depending on gender or *** Twins, including 2,040 women (918 monozygotic and 1,122 dizygotic) and 1,712 men (730 monozygotic and 982 dizygotic), were selected from the Danish Twin Registry for having, along with their like-sex co-twin, completed measures of depressive symptoms, cognition, and leisure activities (physical, intellectual, and social). Network models were estimated and compared at three levels: co-twins to each other within groups defined by gender and zygosity;monozygotic to dizygotic twins within the same gender, and between *** No significant differences were observed when co-twins were compared to each other, regardless of the pair's zygosity or gender, nor when monozygotic twins were compared to dizygotic twins within gender. However, the gendered networks differed significantly in global strength, structure, and partial correlations between specific depressive symptoms and risk factors, all indicating stronger connectedness in women relative to *** Environmental factors appear to best explain between-gender network differences. Women's networks showed significantly stronger associations both among depressive symptoms and between depressive symptoms and risk factors (i.e., decreased cognition and leisure activities). Longitudinal research is needed to determine the causality and directionality of these relationships.

Background: The network theory posits that depression emerges as the result of individual symptoms triggering each other. Risk factors for depression can impact these between-symptoms interactions through extended networks. The study aimed to model the extended network of depressive symptoms and known depression risk factors - objective cognitive function, intellectual, physical, and social daily activities, and then, compare the observed networks between monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) co-twins. Methods: Twin pairs, 722 MZ and 2200 DZ, aged 40-79, were selected from the Dansh Twin Registry for having complete measures of depressive symptoms (e.g., sadness), cognitive functions (e.g., verbal memory), physical (e. g., brisk walk), intellectual (e.g., reading newspapers) and social activities (e.g., phone calls). Gaussian graphical models were used to estimate and compare the networks first between co-twins and then, between MZ to DZ twin pairs separately. Results: Specific intellectual, physical and social activities were central in the extended networks of depressive symptoms and, with the exception of processing speed, more central than cognition. The extended networks' structure was more homogeneous between MZ co-twins relative to DZ co-twins. cognitive nodes were more central in MZ than DZ co-twins. Limitations: Cross-sectional design, participants were middle-aged or older, mostly affective (non-somatic) depressive symptoms. Conclusions: In depression networks, core connecting elements were intellectual, physical and social activities. The interaction between cognition and daily activities seems critical for triggering depressive symptoms. Thus, clinical interventions aimed at preventing depression and associated cognitive deficits should focus on maintenance and/or engagement in stimulating daily activities.

Abstract: The review is dedicated to the role of gravity in the implementation of human cognitive functions. The weightlessness on various aspects of cognitive activity is considered, such as the choice of a vertical, the formation of a reference system, including the time coordinate, the recognition influence of the symmetry of complex shapes, the processes of memorizing and recognizing images, and orientation in three-dimensional labyrinths. It is described how the EEG activity of the brain in response to visual stimuli changes in weightlessness. It is shown that in weightlessness there are not only changes in the work of reflex mechanisms, but also restructuring at the level of the cognitive system, in particular, “reprogramming” of sensorimotor systems, and the development of new skills for the functioning of the brain in changed conditions. © 2023, Pleiades Publishing, Inc.
