This study investigated whether higher cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) is associated with better cerebral vascular and metabolic health-specifically cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2), and oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) acr ...

Adults who have had obesity from childhood are at greater risk of obesity-related comorbidities compared to those who only develop obesity in adulthood. The main way of mitigating these risks in obesity is with weight loss, which has been shown to positively affect the cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and body composition of adults.

Associations between cardiorespiratory fitness and brain health in healthy older adults have been reported using a variety of cardiorespiratory fitness estimates (CRFe). Using commonly used methods to determine CRF, we assessed the relationship between CRFe and executive function performance. Healthy older adults (n = 60, mean age 68 years, 77% women), un ...
