- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 手握强度 (HGS) 是老年人整体健康的关键指标.
- 现有的HGS弱点切断点可能无法一致预测认知表现.
- 不同的HGS弱点定义的预后价值需要进一步调查.
研究的目的:
- 评估HGS绝对和正常化弱点和未来认知障碍之间的关联.
- 检查认知衰退的综合弱点标准的预测效用.
- 确定最有效的HGS措施来预测美国老年人的认知障碍.
主要方法:
- 来自健康和退休研究 (2006-2018) 的11,116名65岁以上的成年人纵向小组的分析.
- 使用修改的认知状态的电话采访来评估认知功能.
- 用绝对,身体质量正常化和身体质量指数正常化切割点来定义手握强度 (HGS) 的弱点.
主要成果:

Cognitive Development During Adulthood
155
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Cognitive Enhancers: Cholinesterase Inhibitors and NMDA Receptor Antagonists
151
Cognitive enhancers, also known as "smart drugs," are substances used to enhance memory, mental alertness, and concentration. These can be natural or synthetic and improve cognition in conditions like Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. Some common examples include caffeine, amphetamines, methylphenidate, modafinil, arecoline, donepezil, vortioxetine, and piracetam. These enhancers work on the principle of synaptic plasticity and altered circuit function.
