Associations between declines in uneven terrain walking speed and visuospatial working memory in older adults

3 weeks 5 days ago
CONCLUSION: These findings support a relationship between declines in uneven terrain mobility and n-back cognitive function in older adults; however, this relationship was not observed in younger adults. Further research is needed to understand the shared neural mechanisms underlying age-related declines in mobility and cognitive function.

Circadian rhythms in aging and longevity: from molecular chronomics to translational gerontology

3 weeks 5 days ago
Aging is accompanied by progressive deterioration in physiological homeostasis, increasing vulnerability to metabolic, neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and immune disorders. Over the past two decades, circadian biology has emerged as a central integrative framework linking environmental time cues to cellular, tissue, and organismal resilience. The circadian timing system (CTS), composed of a central pacemaker in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and peripheral clocks throughout the body,...
