Neurological Resilience Metrics

Meaning

Neurological Resilience Metrics are a defined set of clinical, biological, and functional markers used to quantify the central nervous system’s intrinsic capacity to resist, adapt to, and effectively recover from diverse stressors, including chronic inflammation, oxidative damage, and age-related decline. These metrics often include objective measures of cognitive reserve, the concentration of key neurotrophic factors, the integrity of the blood-brain barrier, and the stability of the HPA axis response. High resilience indicates a robust and adaptable neural network, essential for long-term brain health.
