Neurological Performance Markers

Meaning

Neurological Performance Markers are a set of quantifiable biological and functional indicators used in clinical practice to assess the efficiency, resilience, and overall health of the central nervous system. These markers include biochemical measures such as neurotransmitter metabolite levels, neurotrophic factor concentrations like BDNF, and physiological metrics of cognitive speed, attention, and executive function. Analyzing these markers provides an objective, actionable insight into the brain’s current state of performance, helping to guide interventions for cognitive optimization and mental well-being. They offer a window into the brain’s metabolic and signaling status.
