Doing Crossword Puzzles Helps Sharpen Memory Better Than Computer Games

Researchers have discovered that crossword puzzles help to better sharpen memory in older individuals suffering from mild cognitive impairment, in comparison to computer games. While crossword puzzles are popularly used, no research has systematically studied them and their association with mild cognitive impairment until now. Mild cognitive impairment is known to heighten the risk of an individual developing dementia. The study was led by Professor D.P. Devenand of Columbia University and Professor Murali Doraiswamy, director of the Neurocognitive Disorders Program at Duke University School of Medicine.

Research Suggests That Gum Disease May Cause Alzheimer’s

Alzheimer’s is a common type of dementia that usually starts with mild memory loss before progressing to loss of the ability to carry on a conversation with another person. Recent studies have found that the disease, which affects parts of the brain that control memory, thought and language, is actually an infection. One such study suggested that gum disease, which starts as bacterial growth in an individual’s mouth, may be the bacterial culprit behind this degenerative condition. This comes after scientists discovered Porphyromonas gingivalis in the brains of deceased individuals who suffered from Alzheimer’s. Porphyromonas gingivalis is a pathogen that…

Research Recommends Reduction of Pediatric Brain Irradiation During Cancer Treatment

According to Cancer.org, slightly more than 10,000 children under the age of 15 will be diagnosed with pediatric cancer by the end of the year.

A recent study published in the “Journal of the National Cancer Institute” revealed that pediatric cancer patients experience significant premature aging compared to counterparts in the same age group who did not have pediatric cancer. Cancer treatments such as abdominal radiation and chemotherapy were found…

Research Discovers That Survivors of Pediatric Cancer Are Prone to Premature Aging

Every year, an estimated 400 children and adolescents aged 19 and under are diagnosed with cancer. Leukemia, brain tumors, solid tumors such as neuroblastomas and lymphomas tend to be the most common types of pediatric cancer, with more than 80% of patients in high-income nations such as the United States receiving treatment. Even though pediatric cancer treatment can be quite cost intensive, childhood cancer can generally be cured via surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and generic medicines. However, a recent study has revealed that patients who survive pediatric cancer aren’t completely out of the woods even after they are in remission. The…
