Last week, Neuroscience News posted an article about the changes that can occur in the brain when its white matter is damaged. According to research from the University of Cambridge’s Stem Cell Institute, localized damage to white brain matter causes inflammation in regions of grey matter. While this inflammation is usually necessary for healing, if the brain’s myelin fails to regenerate as needed, this can instead result in chronic inflammation and neurodegeneration. You can read more about this research by using the URL provided below.

An ADHD diagnosis can bring knowledge and certainty to a student’s life, but how much does the timing of this diagnosis matter? If a recent article from Contemporary Pediatrics is any indication, it can matter greatly. According to research from a Finnish national register study, ADHD diagnoses at later ages were associated with poorer academic outcomes. If you want to learn more about this research, then you can read the article by using the URL provided below.

Recently, Neuroscience News shared an article about how Alzheimer’s disease can spread, specifically through the neural buildup of tau proteins. According to research from a study published in Neuron magazine, tau proteins can seed themselves between a person’s neurons and through synapses. Since each person’s brain develops unique communication pathways, these tau pathways are also unique, which means that a person’s brain map can determine their Alzheimer’s risk. If you want to learn more about this research, then you can read the article by using the URL provided below.

Predicting dementia is an important matter, but not everyone knows what signs to look out for. Neuroscience News posted an article last month about how impairment of attention can be a more common early signifier for dementia than memory loss. According to research from Swansea University, these failures of attention occur because of how dementia can change how the brain is able to filter information and sustain focus, and that this can predate measurable memory loss. You can learn more by reading the article, which can be found at the URL that’s been provided below.

Most people have to spend extended periods of time sitting down. However, what you do while sitting down can impact your brain health. Neuroscience News posted an article on this subject that was based on research from the American Journal of Preventive Medicine; it discusses how mentally active sitting activities – such as reading or working – can protect the brain from dementia risk, at least when compared to mentally passive activities. You can learn more about this research by using the URL that’s been provided below.

Yesterday might have been April Fool’s Day, but today’s post is no joke. Recently, Psychology Today shared an article about how, despite 6% percent of adults qualifying for an ADHD diagnosis in the past year, the amount of practicing clinicians (and current clinicians-in-training) who are trained to assess adult ADHD is disappointingly low. You can use the link provided below to read more about these current statistics, and the importance of finding providers who are prepared to assess and treat adult ADHD.

Last week, Neuroscience News posted an article about one of the ways that aging and Parkinson’s disease can affect the brain and body. According to research that has been shared by the Society for Neuroscience, these conditions push the brain into an “overdrive” mode to correct for small balance threats; however, this effort can raise the risk of falling and lower the ability to recover from falls. You can learn more about this research by reading the article with the URL provided below.

Frontotemporal dementia (the leading cause of dementia at younger ages) is an intimidating condition, with certain subtypes being infamous for appearing in people who seemingly have no family history of them. Recently, though, Neuroscience News shared an article about research into a possible genetic risk factor for a certain rare form of FTD, which could lead to more precise diagnoses in the future. If you want to learn more, then you can read the article by using the link provided below.

Unfortunately, the article is behind a paywall, but the University of Cincinnati, because of their connection to the research, acknowledged the findings on their website. We have provided a link to this announcement below. While short, it includes some information on the study (including the name of the researcher from the University of Cincinnati), as well as links to the full JAMA Psychiatry article (for those who prefer reading peer-reviewed scientific texts) and the National Geographic article (for those who don’t need to worry about dealing with the paywall).

Earlier this month, Neuroscience News posted an article about the lasting effect that viral infections can leave on our brains. According to research from the University of Geneva, when the immune system fights against a virus, it can create different chemical environments in the brain, with some environments making it more likely for cognitive “scarring” to occur. You can learn more by reading the article with the link provided below.
