Journal ArticleDOI
The frontal aging hypothesis evaluated
TL;DR: It is concluded that while the frontal lobes are subject to age-related changes reflected in both behavior and pathology, there is only weak and conflicting evidence that frontal regions are selectively and differentially affected by aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional plasticity in cognitive aging: review and hypothesis.
TL;DR: The author argues that functional plasticity alters the course of cognitive aging and advances the hypothesis that losses in regional brain integrity drive functional reorganization through changes in processing strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visuospatial attention in dementia of the alzheimer type
TL;DR: Intact focusing and impaired disengagement of visuospatial attention may be linked to dysfunction in early DAT of cortico-cortical networks linking the posterior parietal and frontal lobes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that both age and BDNF serum levels are important factors to consider when investigating the mechanisms by which exercise interventions influence cognitive outcomes, particularly in elderly populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Apolipoprotein E Genotype on Spatial Attention, Working Memory, and Their Interaction in Healthy, Middle-Aged Adults: Results From the National Institute of Mental Health’s BIOCARD Study
TL;DR: Effects of APOE genotype on component processes of cognition in healthy, middle-aged adults is consistent with the emergence in adulthood of an APOE-epsilon4 cognitive phenotype.
