In a prospective cohort study involving more than 130 000 US adults followed for up to 43 years, higher intake of caffeinated coffee and tea was associated with lower risk of developing and modestly better cognitive performance, as measured by both subjective and objective tests.
The inverse association was most pronounced at moderate intake, approximately 2 to 3 cups per day of caffeinated coffee or 1 to 2 cups per day of tea, while decaffeinated coffee intake showed no significant relationship to dementia risk or cognitive outcomes.

This prospective cohort study investigates whether coffee and tea intake are associated with dementia risk and cognitive function in female participants from the Nurses’ Health Study and male participants from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study.

How the Prefrontal Cortex Tunes What We See

New research shows that the prefrontal cortex directly tailors the information it sends to visual and motor regions based on arousal levels and movement.

Instead of broadcasting a generic signal, different prefrontal subregions selectively adjust how sharply visual information is encoded.

These circuits help the brain emphasize relevant stimuli or suppress distracting ones depending on context.

The findings reveal a precise communication system that shapes perception and behavior in real time.
