Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term postoperative cognitive dysfunction in the elderly: ISPOCD1 study
J. T. Moller,Pjm Pierre Cluitmans,Lars S. Rasmussen,Peter J. Houx,H Rasmussen,Jaume Canet,Patrick Rabbitt,Jellemer Jolles,K. Larsen,CD Hanning,Olivier Langeron,T Johnson,PM Lauven,P A Kristensen,A Biedler,H van Beem,O Fraidakis,Jeffrey H. Silverstein,Jew Jan Beneken,JS Gravenstein +19 more
TL;DR: The findings of this international multicentre study have implications for studies of the causes of cognitive decline and, in clinical practice, for the information given to patients before surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stroop interference: aging effects assessed with the Stroop Color-Word Test.
TL;DR: This study questions some of the validity of cognitive aging research, as the data suggest that screening for BLE as age-extrinsic factors in nondiseased subjects can reduce many of the performance deficits usually ascribed to aging per se.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Relation Between Morbidity and Cognitive Performance in a Normal Aging Population
Martin P.J. van Boxtel,Frank Buntinx,Peter J. Houx,Job F. M. Metsemakers,André Knottnerus,Jellemer Jolles +5 more
TL;DR: Existing morbidity as a whole contributes only modestly to total variance in cognitive function, however, some specific, relatively common diseases of the elderly, such as diabetes and chronic bronchitis, may aggravate the age-related decline in cognitive ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subjective sleep problems in later life as predictors of cognitive decline. Report from the Maastricht Ageing Study (MAAS)
Marko Jelicic,Hans Bosma,Rudolf W. H. M. Ponds,Martin P.J. van Boxtel,Peter J. Houx,Jelle Jolles +5 more
TL;DR: Although biological sleep criteria seem to be associated with cognitive changes in older people, it is not clear if subjective sleep parameters are related to cognitive decline in later life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-related decline of psychomotor speed- effects of age, brain health, sex, and education
Peter J. Houx,Jellemer Jolles +1 more
TL;DR: This study questions the validity of much research on aging, as the data suggest that a more rigorous health screening for biological life events in subjects recruited from the normal, healthy population can reduce performance effects normally ascribed to aging.
