- mental exercise can successfully hold off the onset of dementia, albeit not prevent it forever. In Alzheimer Prevention Bulletin 18.10.2016 (6) we can find dr Blacker from Psychiatry of Harvard Medical School
- The cognitive activity was significantly associated with reduced risk of dementia. “The results were similar for Alzheimer disease (AD) and vascular dementia. In linear mixed models, increased participation in cognitive activities at the baseline was associated with reduced rates of decline in memory” reports J. Vorgese (7).
- In “EPIDEMIOLOGY”, 2016 Sept 27, “Late-Life Cognitive Activity and Dementia” (4) Sajeev & Coauthors conclude: “Our systematic Review and Bias Analyses provide support for the hypothesis that life-long cognitive activity offers some reduction in AD and all-cause dementia risk. However, more data are needed to confirm this relationship (…)”.
- In “STAJE”, 28.05.2015 edition (5), we can find the following recommendations based on research:
- brain plasticity effectively endorses something that long been suspected: the more we use our brains, the better they work, Marek Małysa
- mental exercise can successfully hold off the onset of dementia, albeit not prevent it forever. - In Alzheimer Prevention Bulletin 18.10.2016 (6) we can find dr Blacker from Psychiatry of Harvard Medical School confirming what’s in (4).
The cognitive activity was significantly associated with reduced risk of dementia. “The results were similar for Alzheimer disease (AD) and vascular dementia. In linear mixed models, increased participation in cognitive activities at the baseline was associated with reduced rates of decline in memory” reports J. Vorgese (7). He and his team made his research on a cohort of 469 subjects 75 years of age without dementia on the baseline. Through 5 years dementia developed in 124 subjects. - “Multi-cognitive training in older adults can mitigate age-related and functional alternations in the brain, thereby helping to reduce or delay age-related cognitive decline, which in turn supports accomplishments of everyday tasks and independent living”.
- “Bridge players plan ahead, they use working memory, they deal with sequencing, initiation and numerous other higher-order functions with which dorsolateral cortex is involved” reports prof M. C. Diamond from The University of California, Berkeley Nov.2000 (9). She also reported her earlier research results: “Playing bridge lowers a chance of developing AJoseph Coyle, a professor of psychiatry and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School, analysing Vorgheses study asked: ”How can molecular determinism of Alzheimer disease be trumped by elderly peoples card-playing?” and answered his question: “using the mind causes rewiring of the brain,
sprouting new synapses….it may cause the generation of new neurons”, “so psychology trumps biology.” (15)lzheimer disease by as much as 75%”. - After very complex neurological and sociological review we came to an important Marek Małysa / +48 790 622 200 /
