Acute caffeine administration impact on working memory-related brain activation and functional connectivity in the elderly: A BOLD and perfusion MRI study

Highlights • Caffeine enhances task-related BOLD activation and functional connectivity in the elderly. • Task-related BOLD activation enhancement predominates in the striatum. • Functional connectivity increases in working memory-related networks by 8.2%. • Caffeine reduces baseline perfusion by 23...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Caffeine enhances task-related BOLD activation and functional connectivity in the elderly. • Task-related BOLD activation enhancement predominates in the striatum. • Functional connectivity increases in working memory-related networks by 8.2%. • Caffeine reduces baseline perfusion by 23% (global vasoconstriction).
