Sex differences in exercise efficacy to improve cognition: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials in older humans

TLDR
It is suggested that women's executive processes may benefit more from exercise than men, and aerobic training led to greater benefits than resistance training in global cognitive function and executive functions, while multimodal combinedTraining led togreat benefits than aerobic training for global Cognitive function, episodic memory, and word fluency.

Examining Sex Differences in the Association Between Sedentary Behavior and Cognitive Function in Bariatric Surgery Patients

TL;DR: In this article , a cross-sectional study examined the association between obesity and cognitive function in preoperative bariatric surgery patients, as well as possible sex differences in this relationship and found that greater obesity was associated with poorer performance on list sorting working memory in women (r=-0.28, p=.006), whereas there was a positive relationship between SB and Dimensional change card sort for men (r=0.51, p =.015, 95% CI [.25, .73]).

Exercise training increases size of hippocampus and improves memory

TL;DR: It is shown that aerobic exercise training increases the size of the anterior hippocampus, leading to improvements in spatial memory, and that increased hippocampal volume is associated with greater serum levels of BDNF, a mediator of neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus.
