dos Santos AT, et al. – The link between memory performance and the neuroendocrine and cardiovascular response to acute psychosocial stress was contemplated in this trial, among healthy older people, along with the sex and age impact in this association. It was inferred that the impact of acute stress on memory performance during aging probably differed based on the age and sex. This data underscored the potential variations in the vulnerability of older people to the neurotoxic effects of stress exposure on memory and consequently, on the development of cognitive disorders.
