Greenness modifies the association between ambient air pollution and cognitive function in Australian adolescents, but not in mid-life adults
Exposure to ambient air pollution has been associated with reduced cognitive function in childhood and later life, with too few mid-life studies to draw conclusions. In contrast, residential greenness has been associated with enhanced cognitive function […]
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and neurocognitive function in children with primary hypertension
Background Children with primary hypertension have been reported to have diminished scores in measures of cognition. However, little is known about the relative correlation between office and ambulatory blood pressure (BP) and neurocognitive test performance, and […]
No Seasonal Changes in Cognitive Functioning Among High School Football Athletes: Implementation of a Novel Electrophysiological Measure and Standard Clinical Measures
Objective: To evaluate neuroelectric and cognitive function relative to a season of football participation. Cognitive and neuroelectric function declines are hypothesized to be present in football athletes. Design: Observational. Setting: Athletic fields and research laboratory. Patients […]
Executive Function in Adolescence: Associations with Child and Family Risk Factors and Self-Regulation in Early Childhood
Executive functions are important higher-order cognitive skills for goal-directed thought and action. These capacities contribute to successful school achievement and lifelong wellbeing. The importance of executive functions to children’s education begins in early childhood and continues […]
Neurocognitive Function in Children with Primary Hypertension
Objective: To compare neurocognitive test performance of children with primary hypertension with that of normotensive controls. Study Design: Seventy-five children (10-18 years of age) with newly diagnosed, untreated hypertension and 75 frequency-matched normotensive controls had baseline […]
