Description
Eugene Tan and co-authors report a 2025 study on how well the upper left chamber of the heart works and how that links to thinking skill. The links between poor work in that chamber and loss of skill are not well known. The team also asked if such links point more to vessel damage in the brain than to nerve cell loss.
The study drew 251 people from memory clinics, most with some loss of skill and none with a fast, uneven heart beat. A heart scan measured how the chamber stretches and squeezes in three phases. One phase measure linked to worse loss, worse test scores, and the vessel form of loss. It also linked to a higher load of vessel signs on brain scans.
