Is exercise actually good for the brain?
There are plenty of reasons to get off your duff and exercise—but is improving your brain one of them? The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention touts exercise as a way to “
boost brain health
,
” while the World Health Organization suggests that about 2 hours of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week can
help improve thinking and memory skills
.
But new research reveals a more complex picture. One recent review of the literature suggests
the studies tying exercise to brain health may have important limitations
, including small sample sizes. Othe...

Direct and indirect impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the brain
AbstractAlthough COVID-19 is mostly a pulmonary disease, it is now well accepted that it can cause a much broader spectrum of signs and symptoms and affect many other organs and tissue. From mild anosmia to severe ischemic stroke, the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the central nervous system is still a great challenge to scientists and health care practitioners. Besides the acute and severe neurological problems described, as encephalopathies, leptomeningitis, and stroke, after 2 years of pandemic, the chronic impact observed during long-COVID or the post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) greatly intrigues scientists worldwide....

Pathogenic mechanisms of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC)
Elife. 2023 Mar 22;12:e86002. doi: 10.7554/eLife.86002.ABSTRACTCOVID-19, with persistent and new onset of symptoms such as fatigue, post-exertional malaise, and cognitive dysfunction that last for months and impact everyday functioning, is referred to as Long COVID under the general category of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC). PASC is highly heterogenous and may be associated with multisystem tissue damage/dysfunction including acute encephalitis, cardiopulmonary syndromes, fibrosis, hepatobiliary damages, gastrointestinal dysregulation, myocardial infarction, neuromuscular syndromes, neuropsychiatric di...

Association between fatigue and cytokine profiles in patients with ischemic stroke
ConclusionThe present findings suggested an association between the growth factor SCF and fatigue. Future research on cytokines as possible markers of fatigue should focus on a longitudinal design including a sufficiently large number of study participants to enable testing associations between certain cytokines and sub-groups of chronic fatigue.

Late effects of childhood cancer recorded at a single outpatient clinic over the course of one year: implications for the follow-up care
Neoplasma. 2022 Jul 13:220531N584. doi: 10.4149/neo_2022_220531N584. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSystematic registration and analysis of detailed treatment data and data on late effects in survivors of childhood cancer are important both for building the evidence base for future assessment of current innovative therapies in pediatric oncology and for personalization of preventive care for survivors of childhood cancer. The paper provides a descriptive analysis of medical data (diagnosis, treatment, late effects, and health status) and selected patient-reported outcomes (mental health and psychosocial well-being) from a s...
