Randomized clinical trials have shown that aerobic exercise attenuates motor symptom progression in Parkinson's disease, but the underlying neural mechanisms are unclear. Here, we investigated how aerobic exercise influences disease-related functional and structural changes in the cortico-striatal sensorimotor network, which is involved in the emergence of motor deficits in Parkinson's disease. Additionally, we explored effects … Continue reading Aerobic exercise alters brain function and structure in Parkinson’s disease a randomized controlled trial
Several studies on the impact of yoga and meditation on mental and physical health have demonstrated beneficial effects. However, the potential molecular mechanisms and critical genes involved in this beneficial outcome have yet to be comprehensively elucidated. This study identified and characterized the transcriptional program associated with advanced meditation practice, and we bioinformatically integrated various … Continue reading Large-scale genomic study reveals robust activation of the immune system following advanced Inner Engineering meditation retreat
Current guidelines recommend 500 to 999 metabolic equivalent (MET)–minutes per week (MET-min/wk) of regular physical activity. However, evidence regarding the association between light-intensity physical activity (LPA) and dementia in older adults is inconsistent. Objective To assess the association between physical activity and new-onset dementia, focusing on the dose-response association between physical activity and dementia and … Continue reading Association of Physical Activity Level With Risk of Dementia in a Nationwide Cohort in Korea
To evaluate if gait biomechanics are associated with increased risk of structurally diagnosed disease onset or progression of lower limb osteoarthritis (OA). MethodA systematic review of Medline and Embase was conducted from inception to July 2021. Two reviewers independently screened records, extracted data and assessed risk of bias. Included studies reported gait biomechanics at baseline, … Continue reading Are biomechanics during gait associated with the structural disease onset and progression of lower limb osteoarthritis? A systematic review and meta-analysis
