At-home computerized executive-function training to improve cognition and mobility in normal-hearing adults and older hearing aid users: a multi-centre, single-blinded randomized controlled trial

Author(s): Downey R; Gagné N; Mohanathas N; Campos JL; Pichora-Fuller KM; Bherer L; Lussier M; Phillips NA; Wittich W; St-Onge N; Gagné JP; Li K; ...

Background: Hearing loss predicts cognitive decline and falls risk. It has been argued that degraded hearing makes listening effortful, causing competition for higher-level cognitive resources need ...

Mastering the Relationship between the Body and the Brain? The Case of a Female Master Athlete

Author(s): Saillant K; Intzandt B; Bérubé B; Sanami S; Gauthier C; Bherer L;

Background: Physical inactivity significantly increases risk of cardiovascular diseases, which are highly prevalent in aging. Conversely, higher levels of physical activity in aging have been associated with benefits for physical and cognitive health and is ...

A comparison of the effect of physical activity and cognitive training on dual-task performance in older adults

Author(s): Vrinceanu T; Blanchette CA; Intzandt B; Lussier M; Pothier K; Vu TTM; Nigam A; Bosquet L; Karelis AD; Li KZH; Berryman N; Bherer L; ...

Objectives: Studies suggest that cognitive training and physical activity can improve age-related deficits in dual-task performances. However, both of these interventions have never been compared i ...

Assessment of the Relationship Between Executive Function and Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Healthy Older Adults

Author(s): Predovan D; Berryman N; Lussier M; Comte F; Vu TTM; Villalpando JM; Bherer L;

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 ...

Sex moderations in the relationship between aortic stiffness, cognition, and cerebrovascular reactivity in healthy older adults

Author(s): Sabra D; Intzandt B; Desjardins-Crepeau L; Langeard A; Steele CJ; Frouin F; Hoge RD; Bherer L; Gauthier CJ; ...

It is well established that sex differences exist in the manifestation of vascular diseases. Arterial stiffness (AS) has been associated with changes in cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and cogniti ...

Comparing the effect of Cognitive vs. Exercise Training on brain MRI outcomes in healthy older adults: A systematic review

Author(s): Intzandt B; Vrinceanu T; Huck J; Vincent T; Montero-Odasso M; Gauthier CJ; Bherer L;

Aging is associated with cognitive decline. Importantly cognition and cerebral health is enhanced with interventions like cognitive (CT) and exercise training (ET). However, effects of CT and ET interventions on brain magnetic resonance imaging outcomes hav ...
