Abstract Background: Brain tumors are fatal malignancies which are frequently associated with psychiatric and behavioural manifestation that should be noticed. Studies suggest that the primary psychiatric dysfunctions are associated with brain tumors in 47-94 % of cases. Case report: A 26-year single woman with neuropsychic symptoms was under the drug therapy with antipsychotic, as well as sed...

Background: Brain tumors in the cerebellum site, especially in the cranial nuclei, are most commonly associated with cognitive impairment in children, but the differences in dimensions of cognitive impairments in pediatric benign and malignant tumors are rarely studied. Meanwhile, cognitive impairments in this area are required to be widely studied. This study aimed at using Computerized Addenb...

Background: Patients with acquired brain injury often experience impaired working memory (WM), a condition that can make everyday life activities and work difficult. Objectives: This study investigates the effects of computerized WM training on WM skills, cognitive tests, activity performance and estimated health and whether the effects of computerized WM training can be attributed to sex or ti...

background: alzheimer’s disease was known as a progressive neurodegenerative disorder in the elderly and is characterized by dementia and severe neuronal loss in the some regions of brain such as nucleus basalis magnocellularis. it plays an important role in the brain functions such as learning and memory. loss of cholinergic neurons of nucleus basalis magnocellularis by ibotenic acid can commo...

As part of a randomized trial of the effects of 1 year of exercise training on patients with stable coronary artery disease, 48 patients who exercised and 59 control patients had computerized exercise electrocardiography performed initially and 1 year later. The patients who had exercise training as an intervention had a 9% increase in measured maximal oxygen consumption and significant decreas...

In 1908, Einthovent published the first example of normal electrocardiographic responses to exercise. In 1928, Feil and Siegel2 observed abnormal downsloping ST depression and T wave inversion in three of four patients experiencing anginal attacks (presumably after climbing stairs to the phy-sician's office; H. Hellerstein, personal communication). In 1932, Goldhammer and Scherf3 associated thi...

Neuroinflammation is inflammation of the nervous tissue. It be initiated in response to infection, toxic metabolites, auto immunity, traumatic brain injury and variety of causes. Exercise is a promising mechanism of prevention and treatment for disease characterized by neuroinflammation. The benefits of exercise and physical activity (PA) are well known and have effects on function of the centr...

METHODS: We assessed 152 masters athletes 54.4±8.5 years of age (70% male) and 92 controls of similar age, sex, and low Framingham 10-year coronary artery disease risk scores with an echocardiogram, exercise stress test, computerized tomographic coronary angiogram, and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging with late gadolinium enhancement and a 24-hour Holter. Athletes had participated in e...

The beneficial effects of exercise on the brain are well known. In general, offers an effective way to improve cognitive function in all ages, particularly elderly, who considered most vulnerable neurodegenerative disorders. this regard, myokines, hormones secreted by muscle response exercise, have recently gained attention as mediators. Irisin is a novel exercise-induced myokine, that modulate...
