Cognitive Control

Abstract Cognitive control constrains retrieval processing and so restricts what comes to mind as input to the attribution system. We review evidence that older adults, patients with Alzheimer's disease, and people with traumatic brain injury exert less cognitive control during retrieval, and so are susceptible to memory misattributions in the form of dramatic levels of false remembering.

The Impact

Background & objective: Neurological diseases are becoming a significant problem worldwide, with the elderly at a higher risk of being affected. Several researchers have investigated the neuroprotective effects of Carvacrol (CAR) (5-isopropyl-2-methyl phenol). This review systematically surveys the existing literature on the impact of CAR when used as a neuroprotective agent in neurological diseases. Methods: The systematic review involved English articles published in the last ten years obtained from PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases. The following descriptors were used to search the literature: “Carvacrol” [Title] AND “neuroprotective (neuroprotection)” [Title] OR “stroke, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, seizure, epilepsy [Title]. Results: : A total of 208 articles were retrieved during the search process, but only 20 studies met the eligibility criteria and were included for review. A total of 20 articles were identified, in which the efficacy of CAR was described in experimental models of stroke, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, , epilepsy, and seizure, through motor deficits improvements in neurochemical activity, especially antioxidant systems, reducing inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis as well as inhibition of TRPC1 and TRPM7. Conclusion : The data presented in this study support the beneficial impact of CAR on behavioural and neurochemical deficits. CAR benefits accrue because of its anti-apoptotic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, CAR has emerged as an alternative treatment for neurological disorders based on its properties.

Transgenic Rat Model

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition that affects 6.2 million people age 65 and older in the U.S. alone, and is the leading cause of dementia. Moreover, AD can lead to visual impairment, and AD histopathology also manifests in the retina. However, the factors that modulate AD pathophysiology and lead to varied susceptibility and presentation in the population are not well understood. In this context, traumatic brain injury (TBI), which can arise from sport concussions, military combat, and other causes, is associated with a 2.3-fold higher risk of developing AD and AD-related dementias (ADRD). Thus, we set out to evaluate the effects of TBI, AD, and their combination, on retinal histopathology. Several animal models have been developed to investigate the mechanisms underlying AD, but many have been limited by imperfect recapitulation of human pathology, and no model of TBI-associated AD (AD-TBI) has been characterized. To address this gap, we generated an innovative model of AD-TBI by taking advantage of a transgenic rat model (Tg-F344-AD) shown to recapitulate the main features of human AD pathology, and combining it with a two-time unilateral controlled cortical impact paradigm to mimic repetitive mild TBI (rmTBI). Histopathological analyses at four months post-impact confirm the presence of AD markers in transgenic retinas, and an increased severity of AD pathology due to TBI. Together, these results contribute to our understanding of the effects of TBI on AD retinopathy, with implications for patient care and therapeutic development.

Introduction: Previous studies have investigated the potential role of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in subsequent development of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) but reported inconsistent results. We aim to determine the association between TBI and subsequent occurrence of dementia and AD. Methods: We performed a systematic search in PubMed and Web of Science for studies that quantitatively investigated the association between TBI and risk of dementia and AD and were published on or before September 21, 2021. A random-effect model was used to combine the estimates. Results: Twenty-five eligible articles were included in this meta-analysis. The results suggested that TBI was associated with an increased risk of dementia (pooled odds ratio [OR] = 1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.53 - 2.14). However, no association was observed between TBI and Alzheimer’s disease (pooled OR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.91 - 1.15). In the subgroup analysis, TBI with loss of consciousness was not associated with risk of dementia (pooled OR = 0.96, 95% CI = 0.84 - 1.09). Besides, Asian ethnicity, male gender, and mean age of the participants less than 65 were associated with a higher risk of dementia. Conclusion: Our study suggests an increased risk of dementia among individuals with TBI, highlighting the need for more intensive medical monitoring and health education in individuals with TBI. Biological mechanisms linking TBI and the development of dementia are needed in future studies.
