cognitive fatigue

No abstract Provided. Here’s an excerpt instead: In this pre-registered (DRKS00031294) randomized, double-blind and sham-controlled trial we assessed the efficacy of repetitive anodal tDCS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) in 40 long COVID patients with cognitive fatigue...

This arose on another thread and I thought worth starting a new thread: Are there changes we notice to cognitive function that indicate we are cognitively fatiguing and may be crashing or crashed? Can we develop ways of tracking them easily to help with pacing? This thread is for sharing...

Highlights Cognitive fatigue is explored with magnetic resonance spectroscopy during a workday Hard cognitive work leads to glutamate accumulation in the lateral prefrontal cortex The need for glutamate regulation reduces the control exerted over decision-making Reduced control favors the...

I thought this piece of (oldish) research might be of interest to people interested in measuring cognitive dysfunction in ME. It notes that self reported fatigue in MS doesn't correlate well with actual cognitive performance measures (which is the same in ME). Here, they developed a new...
