Executive Functions

 
Understanding Executive Functions in 30 Seconds!

Executive functions are a set of cognitive processes essential for controlling and regulating behavior. These functions include working memory (the ability to hold and manipulate information temporarily), flexible thinking (the ability to adapt thinking in response to new information or changes in the environment), and self-control (the capacity to manage impulses, emotions, and behaviors). These processes are critical for goal-directed activities, problem-solving, and decision-making, enabling individuals to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and manage multiple tasks successfully.

These are the conditions that make you eligible for an updated Covid-19 vaccine

Image
  This year’s updated Covid-19 vaccines have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for adults 65 and older and younger people with certain medical conditions that put them at a higher risk of a severe Covid-19 infection. Although federal officials have emphasized that people who want a Covid-19 vaccine can get one after consulting with a doctor, the   narrower approval may limit access to shots for some people who were routinely able to get them in the past. Here’s what to know about getting an updated Covid-19 vaccine. Who can get a Covid-19 vaccine? “FDA has now issued marketing authorization for those at higher risk: Moderna (6+ months), Pfizer (5+), and Novavax (12+). These vaccines are available for all patients who choose them after consulting with their doctors,” US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a post on X this week. “We’ll administer FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccines in states where legally permitte...

Cycling Boosts Brain Function in Parkinson’s Disease

Image
A novel study conducted at University Hospitals and the VA Northeast Ohio Healthcare System, through its Cleveland Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) Center, provides clues, as it shows that long-term dynamic exercise programs might have wider restorative effects on the brain signals of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients than researchers previously thought. Researchers used recordings from participants’ deep brain stimulation devices to try to assess how long-term exercise programs might be re-activating connections damaged by Parkinson’s Disease. Unlike previous studies, this investigation sought to decode the brain changes linked to motor symptom relief; both with the help of second-generation DBS devices and a long-term dynamic cycling exercise regimen in Parkinson’s patients. Details on the study are published in the June 2025 issue of  Clinical Neurophysiology . The pilot investigation, funded by a VA Merit Award from the Department of Veterans Affairs along with philanthr...

As fewer Americans die from heart attacks, more succumb to chronic heart disease

Image
  From 1970 to 2022, deaths from heart attacks dropped by almost 90%, but more Americans now die from other types of heart disease, Stanford Medicine-led research has found. In 1970, someone over the age of 65 hospitalized for a heart attack in the United States had about a 60% chance of leaving the hospital alive. Today, the survival rate is over 90%, with even better outcomes for younger patients. Those numbers have contributed to a remarkable decrease in the likelihood of dying from any type of heart disease over the last 50 years, according to a new study of heart disease mortality led by Stanford Medicine researchers. In 1970, 41% of all deaths were attributed to ailments of the heart; in 2022, that statistic had dropped to 24% of all deaths.  Most strikingly, the proportion of deaths from acute myocardial infarctions — commonly known as heart attacks — fell nearly 90% during that period. The decrease is a testament to the leaps and bounds made in our ability to manage an...
