Higher cardiorespiratory fitness levels are associated with greater hippocampal volume in breast cancer survivors
Publisher's PDFAs breast cancer treatment is associated with declines in brain and cognitive health, it
is important to identify strategies to enhance the cognitive vitality of cancer survivors.
In particular, the hippocampus is known to play an important role in brain and memory
declines following cancer treatment. The hippocampus is also known for its plasticity
and positive association with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF). The present study explores
whether CRF may hold promise for lessening declines in brain and cognitive health of
a sample of breast cancer survivors within 3 years of completion of primary cancer
treatment. We explored the role of cardiovascular fitness in hippocampal structure in
breast cancer survivors and non-cancer female controls, as well as performed a median
split to compare differences in hippocampal volume in relatively higher fit and lower fit
cancer survivors and non-cancer controls. Indeed, CRF and total hippocampal volume
were positively correlated in the cancer survivors. In particular, higher fit breast cancer
survivors had comparable hippocampal volumes to non-cancer control participants
(Cohen’s d = 0.13; p > 0.3), whereas lower fit breast cancer survivors showed
significantly smaller hippocampal volumes compared to both lower fit and higher fit
control participants (Cohen’s d = 0.87, p < 0.05). These results are the first to identify
that CRF may protect the brain health of breast cancer survivors within 3 years of
treatment. The present study uniquely contributes to the field of cancer and cognition
and emphasizes the importance of investigating how individual differences in CRF play a
role in brain changes of breast cancer survivors.University of Delaware. Department of Behavioral Health & Nutrition

Brain activation during dual-task processing is associated with cardiorespiratory fitness and performance in older adults
Citation: Wong, C. N., Chaddock-Heyman, L., Voss, M. W., Burzynska, A. Z., Basak, C., Erickson, K. I., . . . Kramer, A. F. (2015). Brain activation during dual-task processing is associated with cardiorespiratory fitness and performance in older adults. Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 7, 10. doi:10.3389/fnagi.2015.00154Higher cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with better cognitive performance and enhanced brain activation. Yet, the extent to which cardiorespiratory fitness-related brain activation is associated with better cognitive performance is not well understood. In this cross-sectional study, we examined whether the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and executive function was mediated by greater prefrontal cortex activation in healthy older adults. Brain activation was measured during dual-task performance with functional magnetic resonance imaging in a sample of 128 healthy older adults (59-80 years). Higher cardiorespiratory fitness was associated with greater activation during dual-task processing in several brain areas including the anterior cingulate and supplementary motor cortex (ACC/SMA), thalamus and basal ganglia, right motor/somatosensory cortex and middle frontal gyrus, and left somatosensory cortex, controlling for age, sex, education, and gray matter volume. Of these regions, greater ACC/SMA activation mediated the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and dual-task performance. We provide novel evidence that cardiorespiratory fitness may support cognitive performance by facilitating brain activation in a core region critical for executive function

Perspectives on ‘the lens of risk’ interview series: interviews with Tom Horlick-Jones, Paul Slovic and Andy Alaszewski
This article is the fourth and final of an interview series with a selection of significant contributors to the social science of risk. It provides quasi-verbatim interviews with Tom Horlick-Jones, Paul Slovic and Andy Alaszewski. Tom Horlick-Jones contributed to Chapter 6 of the Royal Society Risk monograph, on risk management. He offers further insights into the debates which underlay its production to those given by Nick Pidgeon in the first article of this series. Paul Slovic provides a North American perspective on risk social science. Andy Alaszewski, in the last of the eight interviews, discusses his views about risk in relation to the evolution of his journal, Health, Risk & Society
