Acupuncture for brain diseases: Conception, application, and exploration
2022 Feb 23 The Anatomical Record Gao X, Wang Y, Meng H, Li S, Jiang H, Zhang Z, et al.
In this review, we summarized the current achievements in the field of acupuncture for brain diseases. At present, the fields undergoing an evolution from empirical medicine, EBM to precision medicine, and its conception, application, and exploration have crossed over from the study of traditional experience to the overall understanding of the brain function and biological signals based on interdisciplinary research. In view of the current progress, we are quite confident that acupuncture will inject new vitality into the field of brain research and brain diseases.

Systematic Review Alzheimer's Disease Dementia Stroke
The existing evidence, although with low level of confidence, suggests that walnut intake may have a beneficial effect on cognition-related outcomes, including cognitive function, mood, and stroke. Limitations in study design and comparability render the available evidence insufficient to draw a firm conclusion regarding the effects of walnut on cognition in adults. High quality studies and standardized interventions and measurement tools are necessary to determine the role of walnut intake in cognitive health.
These reports suggest the benefits of a walnut-enriched diet in brain disorders and in other chronic diseases, due to the additive or synergistic effects of walnut components for protection against oxidative stress and inflammation in these diseases.

Systematic Review Alzheimer's Disease Brain Health Cognitive Function
Walnuts contain several components that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Animal and human studies from our and other groups suggest that supplementation with walnuts in the diet may improve cognition and reduce the risk and/or progression of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease.
Furthermore, several animal and human studies have suggested that walnuts may also decrease the risk or progression of other brain disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, and depression, as well as of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Together, these reports suggest the benefits of a walnut-enriched diet in brain disorders and in other chronic diseases, due to the additive or synergistic effects of walnut components for protection against oxidative stress and inflammation in these diseases.
