Daily brain tests could reveal how prepared your immune system is to tackle a future viral infection.
tends to go hand-in-hand with periods of fluctuating cognitive performance fluctuates.participants tested their attention, reaction time, and ability to switch between numbers and symbols.
Volunteers were also asked to rate their experience of eight symptoms, including chills, cough, headache, nasal obstruction, runny nose, sneezing, sore throat, and tiredness.and had the worst symptoms tended to show inconsistent cognitive scores in the days leading up to their sickness. The authors of the study acknowledge that most people are unlikely to take a cognitive test three times a day for the rest of their lives. But their results still showed strength even when only five tests were accounted forIn the real world, a person doesn't know when they will next be exposed to a virus. That means for brain tests to predict future immune responses, they probably need to be taken semi-regularly. How regular remains to be determined.
The authors of the current study hope that one day, brain tests can be easily accessed and tracked by the public using their very own smartphones.
