Feeling Younger as an Indicator of Better Overall Intrinsic Capacities in the INSPIRE-T Cohort

1 week 6 days ago
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that feeling younger than one's age is associated with better overall intrinsic capacities at baseline and lesser decline over the monitoring period. Routine assessment of subjective age could help to identify individuals who may benefit from prevention strategies and could promote patient-centered care by providing deeper insights into individuals' perceptions of aging.

Scientists restore memory by blocking a single Alzheimer’s protein

1 week 6 days ago
Researchers have identified a new potential weapon against Alzheimer’s: blocking a protein called PTP1B. In mice, this approach boosted memory and helped brain immune cells clear harmful plaque buildup. Since PTP1B is also linked to diabetes and obesity—both risk factors for Alzheimer’s—it could offer a broader treatment strategy.

Scientists reveal the best exercise for knee arthritis pain relief

A major review of 217 trials shows that aerobic exercise is the most effective option for managing knee osteoarthritis. Activities like walking, cycling, and swimming outperformed other exercise types in reducing pain and improving movement. While alternatives like strength training and mind-body exercises help, they are best used alongside aerobic workouts. The findings also confirm that exercise is a safe and essential part of treatment.
