Structural brain correlates of non-verbal cognitive ability in 5-year-old children: Findings from the FinnBrain birth cohort study
Hum Brain Mapp. 2023 Aug 22. doi: 10.1002/hbm.26463. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Non-verbal cognitive ability predicts multiple important life outcomes, for example, school and job performance. It has been associated with parieto-frontal cortical anatomy in prior studies in adult and adolescent populations, while young children have received relatively little…

Three clearly different cortisol profiles were identified. The largest group at…
The association of previous night’s sleep duration with cognitive function among older adults: a pooled analysis of three Finnish cohorts
Eur J Ageing. 2023 Aug 3;20(1):32. doi: 10.1007/s10433-023-00779-6. ABSTRACT STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep duration has been shown to associate with cognitive function, but little is known about the short-term effect of sleep duration on the previous night. This study examines how usual sleep duration and previous night’s sleep duration are associated…
Genetic insights into resting heart rate and its role in cardiovascular disease
Nat Commun. 2023 Aug 2;14(1):4646. doi: 10.1038/s41467-023-39521-2. ABSTRACT Resting heart rate is associated with cardiovascular diseases and mortality in observational and Mendelian randomization studies. The aims of this study are to extend the number of resting heart rate associated genetic variants and to obtain further insights in resting heart rate…
