Summary: This study found that child obesity and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are associated with deficits in cognitive control and preference for immediate reward. Differences were found in the preference for immediate reward between overweight/obese children and typically developing children, but only children with ADHD showed deficient cognitive control.

Summary: The increased incidence of adolescent obesity may be associated with lower cognitive performance than expected potential. This study found that male adolescents with severe obesity had a higher proportion of low cognitive scores compared to their normal-weight counterparts. Similar findings were observed in females. This study suggests that obesity is associated with a lower cognitive performance and the inability to fully achieve cognitive potential.

Summary: This study utilized data from the Finnish Twin Cohort and found a significant association between increased BMI and accelerated biological aging. These results suggest a potential role of BMI in the aging process.

Summary: This study found that higher middle age BMI is associated with cognitive decline, while higher WHR in the elderly is related to improved cognitive performance. WC is associated with cognitive decline in males, and WHR is closely connected to cognitive decline in participants with BMI<25kg/m(2).

Summary: This study investigates the bidirectional relationship between adiposity and cognitive function using a large, representative sample. The findings suggest that higher waist circumference is associated with higher Stroop interference, and vice versa, particularly in middle-aged adults.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of overweight and obesity in asthma patients, as well as their impacts on lung function. The results showed a high prevalence of overweight and obesity among asthma patients, and obesity was associated with reduced lung function, specifically decreased FEV1 and FVC. Therefore, weight loss is crucial for improving lung function in asthma patients.

Summary: Sustainable cognitive health is affected by cognitive reserve, which delays or reduces cognitive decline by enhancing cognitive function. This study explores whether cognitive reserve moderates the relationship between white matter integrity and cognitive function in older adults. The findings reveal that early fluid intelligence has a significant independent and moderating impact on cognitive performance, making it a suitable individual proxy for cognitive reserve. Additionally, a composite proxy of early fluid intelligence and physical activity shows promise in promoting sustainable cognitive health.

Summary: This study developed and validated a new functional score based on self-reported cognitive and physical function in the older Chinese population. The score was found to be associated with all-cause mortality risk and showed additional predictive utility beyond age and sex. It was also demonstrated to be a simple and practical tool for assessing functional deterioration.

Summary: The study found that implementing a 12-week moderate to vigorous aerobic exercise program significantly improved the self-efficacy of overweight schoolgirls and effectively reduced weight. Compared to the control group, the experimental group achieved better results.

Summary: The study examines the importance of cognitive reserve (CR) for brain integrity and cognitive outcomes using UK Biobank data. The findings suggest that the effects of CR on brain integrity and cognition vary depending on the proxy used, brain integrity indicators, cognitive domain, and age group.

Summary: The study found that EF interventions may not directly affect weight loss, but baseline inhibition and delay discounting significantly predict future weight loss through obesity intervention. Age moderates the relationship between working memory and weight loss through intervention, and early-life inhibition marginally predicts future weight loss.

Summary: The study revealed that cognitive and motor function decline with age among community-dwelling individuals aged 45-90, with steeper declines seen after ages 65-70. Lower educated participants had lower cognitive function at baseline and experienced a faster decline compared to those with higher education, although this educational effect was not observed in motor function.

Summary: Agility training is essential for improving neuromuscular performance and balance in older adults. This study examined the physical and cognitive effects of an agility ladder training program on healthy older adults. The results showed that only the group that received cognitive training alongside agility training showed improvements in cognitive function, while the group that only performed agility training saw improvements in physical performance.

Summary: In the Colombian population, being underweight was associated with reduced cognitive performance and daily functioning, while being overweight was associated with better cognition and daily functioning. In South Korea, there were no significant associations between BMI and cognition, IADL, or BADL.
