Introduction: Over time, a person's age will increase in line with the decreasing cardiorespiratory fitness condition. Every human being certainly hopes to pass through the old age phase in a healthy and fit condition. For this reason, in order to improve cardiovascular fitness in the elderly, it is necessary to review what affects the decrease in cardiovascular fitness in the elderly so that later it can be modified for the better. Aims : To determine the effect of prayer movement and other factors on heart and lung fitness in the elderly. Method: This type of literature study is a literature review. The search strategy for English studies relevant to the topic was carried out using the ProQuest, SagePub, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Semantic Scholar databases limited from 2015 to 2020. The keywords used in the article search were elderly, influence, fitness, heart lung and prayer. Result: The factors that affect the fitness of the heart lung areheredity, age, gender, nutrition, smoking, physical activity and excessive salt consumption. Apart from that, the prayer movement can also improve blood circulation in the body and increase the supply of oxygen to the brain. Conclusion: There are many factors that affect cardiovascular fitness, some of which can be modified and cannot be modified. Meanwhile, the prayer movement is very beneficial for the health of the body both psychologically and mentally.

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an effective medical treatment for severe and persistent psychiatric disorders. It relieves de pressed mood and thoughts of suicide, as well as mania, acute psychosis, delirium, and stupor. It is usually applied when medications have given limited relief or their side effects are intolerable. Electroconvulsive therapy is similar to a surgical treatment. It requires the specialized skills of a psychiatrist, an anesthesiologist, and nurses. The patient receives a short-acting anesthetic. While the patient is asleep, the physician, following a prescribed procedure, induces an epileptic seizure in the brain. By making sure that the patient’s lungs are filled with oxygen, the physician precludes the gasping and difficult breathing that accompany a spontaneous epileptic fit. By relaxing the patient’s muscles with chemicals and by inserting a mouth guard (not unlike those used in sports), the physician prevents the tongue biting, fractures, and injuries that occasionally occur in epilepsy. The patient is asleep, and so experiences neither the painful effects of the stimulus nor the discomforts of the seizure. The physiological functions of the body, such as breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen concentration, and degree of motor relaxation, are monitored, and anything out of the ordinary is immediately treated. Electroconvulsive therapy relieves symptoms more quickly than do psychotropic drugs. A common course of ECT consists of two or three treatments a week for two to seven weeks. To sustain the recovery, weekly or biweekly continuation treatments, either ECT or medications, are often administered for four to six months. If the illness recurs, ECT is prescribed for longer periods. The duration and course of ECT are similar to those of the psychotropic medicines frequently used for the same conditions. Electroconvulsive therapy has been used safely to treat emotional disorders in patients of all ages, from children to the elderly, in people with debilitating physical illnesses, and in pregnant women. Emotional disorders may be of short or long duration; they may be manifest as a single episode or as a recurring event. Electroconvulsive treatment is an option when the emotional disorder is acute in onset; when changes in mood, thought, and motor activities are pronounced; when the cause is believed to be biochemical or physiological; when the condition is so severe that it interferes with the patient’s daily life; or when other treatments have failed.

Osteoporosis and neurodegenerative diseases are two kinds of common disorders of the elderly, which often co-occur. Previous studies have shown the skeletal and central nervous systems are closely related to pathophysiology. As the main structural scaffold of the body, the bone is also a reservoir for stem cells, a primary lymphoid organ, and an important endocrine organ. It can interact with the brain through various bone-derived cells, mostly the mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The bone marrow is also a place for generating immune cells, which could greatly influence brain functions. Finally, the proteins secreted by bones (osteokines) also play important roles in the growth and function of the brain. This article reviews the latest research studying the impact of bone-derived cells, bone-controlled immune system, and bone-secreted proteins on the brain, and evaluates how these factors are implicated in the progress of neurodegenerative diseases and their potential use in the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.

The carotid artery consists of two carotid arteries, namely the dextra communist artery and the sinistra, the main blood vessels in the neck that supply blood to the brain, the basal ganglia, which have the function of regulating the motor functions of the body. The communal carotid arteries blocked flow can cause brain ischemia. It is due to hypoxia due to a lack of oxygen supply carried by the brain, resulting in motor body function disorders, incredible blockages in the carotid arteries that supply blood to the brain, and neurons as regulators of motor functions. The research is a literature study that has relevance to the formulation of the problem meets the criteria and research objectives to determine the effect of the length of the blockage of the arteries of the carotid artery of the communist to the motor function of the Wistar strain rats. The results of a literature review or literature studies in some previous scientific research journals indicate if the blockage of the arteries of the communal carotid arteries affects the disruption of motor function caused by hypoxia and damage to neurons and brain tissue in motor neurons. The conclusion is that the blockage and the duration of blockage of the communal carotid arteries affect motor function.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a disease of kidney function disorders that occurs when the body fails to maintain metabolism, fluid, and electrolyte balance which can cause retention of urea and nitrogen waste in the blood. One of the treatments for patients with kidney failure is hemodialysis, but it can also cause psychological issues such as anxiety. Benson relaxation is a nursing intervention that can reduce anxiety. The purpose of this literature is to determine the effectiveness of the Benson relaxation method in reducing anxiety in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The study is a literature review that was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Elsevier, ScienceDirect, Portal Garuda, and Google Scholar, yielding ten articles. The findings indicate that Benson's relaxation therapy is effective in reducing the anxiety level of hemodialysis patients. This exercise will stimulate the brain to release alpha waves that cause humans to feel happy, calm, and feel comfortable. Therefore, Benson relaxation is recommended as an additional intervention for reducing anxiety in hemodialysis patients.

Elderly is a condition that will be experienced by each people, where the age range is from 45 to 75 years. The process adds up age followed also by changes that occur in body systems either physiologically or pathologically in the presence of comorbidities. One of the processes that occurs is function cerebellum descends by starting with a balance disturbance and then the brain system, resulting in the risk of falling. Elderly experiencing falls can be affected by some things such as disorders of the brain system, self it self and the environment. A part from anatomical factors, there is also a lighting environment usually the elderly always wake up at night, if the environment is less lighting then the risk of falling is higher and if the condition of waking up, the concentration and muscle power cannot be optimal, resulting in decreased balance so that the risk of falling is higher. One way to maintain and minimize the risk can be done the core stability exercise. Benefits of core stability exercise is to strengthen the core as the support of the body so that the body can be stable. This type of research is experiment, using quasi experimental design with pre test and post test group design. The statistic test using Wilcoxon test. Sample of elderly at integrated healthcare center in Ngebel, totaled are 34 elderly. Elderly sample criteria age 60-74 years, do not use assistive devices and do not experience neurological disorders. Measure morse fall skale. The results of the homogeneity test show that the significance value (p) core stability exercise of 0.323, because of the significance of p 0.05 it can be concluded that the population is from the same variant or homogeneous. The calculation of the data normality test used the Shapiro-Wilk Test and is said to be normal if p 0, 05. Data normality test results 0.085. Hypothesis Test with willcoxon test because it has a normal and homogeneous data distribution in the group. From the test results obtained with a value of P = 0.034, meaning P 0, 05, so that there is an effect of core stability training on the risk of falling in the elderly.

Background: Parkinson's disease is a disabling neurodegenerative disorder, mainly affecting the elderly population. Symptoms of Parkinsonism include motor function abnormalities, tremors in hands and legs, postural instability, etc. Side-effect free, long-term management of Parkinsonism is still a challenge. According to Ayurveda, the disease that resembles the symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease is Kampavata (kampa means tremors), which is primarily caused by the imbalance of the Vata Dosha. Various Panchakarma procedures have been found useful in the treatment of different Vata Vyadhis (diseases caused by the imbalance of Vata Dosha).Methodology: Panchakarma therapy was administered for 19 days to a male patient suffering from symptoms of Parkinsonism (Kampavata) since about nine months, as well as other associated ailments. According to Ayurveda, Kampavata is primarily associated with Vata imbalance. Hence, Vata pacifying herbal medicines, that also provide strengthening and nourishing effect to the degenerative tissues of the body, as well as nourishment to the brain, were used.Results: The patient experienced significant relief in the tremors in B/L hands, numbness in B/L big toes, weakness in lower extremity, and lower back pain. The patient also experienced notable relief in the complaints of Constipation, Gastric upset, and Flatus. Overall, the patient reported a satisfactory experience after taking the therapy.Conclusion: Panchakarma therapy showed encouraging results in the management of symptoms associated with Parkinsonism, as well as other associated ailments, in short duration of time.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that occurs mainly in the elderly and presenile life stages. It is estimated that by the year 2050, 135 million people will be affected by AD worldwide, representing a huge burden to society. The pathological hallmarks of AD mainly include intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) caused by hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, formation of extracellular amyloid plaques, and massive neural cell death in the affected nervous system. The pathogenesis of AD is very complicated, and recent scientific research on AD is mainly concentrated on the cortex and hippocampus. Although the spinal cord is a pivotal part of the central nervous system, there are a limited number of studies focusing on the spinal cord. As an extension of the brain, the spinal cord functions as the bridge between the brain and various parts of the body. However, pathological changes in the spinal cord in AD have not been comprehensively and systematically studied at present. We here review the existing progress on the pathological features of AD in the spinal cord.

As humans grow from children into adults, they pass through a stage called adolescence. Adolescence is a time of major social, environmental, and biological change in a person’s life. The start of puberty, which often happens around the teenage years, is an important period of human physical and emotional development. In addition to the more obvious bodily changes that happen during this time, an adolescent’s brain also goes through changes that may not be as visible. These changes are directed by chemicals called hormones. Hormones help our bodies become taller, change shape, and even grow hair. Although hormones act on different parts of the body (like bones, muscles, or skin), several crucial hormones for puberty are actually made in the brain. Scientists are learning more about the ways hormones affect how the brain grows and changes, and in turn, the way that changes how you act and feel!
