摘要
功能认知与运动成功息息相关,并与体育锻炼相互依存,然而,尽管体育训练中的炎症反应被反复证明,却没有研究探讨运动员的认知与炎症之间的关系。本研究的目的是调查精英运动员的认知能力与选定的炎症和其他生理生物标志物之间的关系。通过相关分析和多元回归分析,对 350 名精英运动员的认知能力(处理速度、选择性注意力、工作记忆、认知灵活性)、全身炎症标志物、代谢激素、生长因子、组织损伤标志物、微量营养素(如铁蛋白、25-OH-维生素 D)以及生理、恢复和压力的主观评价进行了分析。结果显示,所有运动员在处理速度、选择性注意和工作记忆方面的差异,都可以通过代谢激素与生理和心理压力指标的结合,以及通过维生素 D 水平与认知灵活性的结合,得到最好的解释。只有在封闭技能运动的运动员亚组中,TNF-α与IL-10的比率才对工作记忆和认知灵活性的差异有显著的解释作用。总的来说,所发现的相关性表明,炎症平衡和充足的长期营养供应对于认知能力不受影响非常重要。
Inflammation and cognitive performance in elite athletes: A cross-sectional study
Functional cognition is relevant for athletic success and interdependent with physical exercise, yet despite repeatedly demonstrated inflammatory responses to physical training, there are no studies addressing the relationship between cognition and inflammation in athletes. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cognitive performance and selected inflammatory, and further physiological biomarkers in elite athletes. Data from 350 elite athletes regarding cognitive performance (processing speed, selective attention, working memory, cognitive flexibility), systemic inflammatory markers, metabolic hormones, growth factors, tissue damage markers, and micronutrients (e.g., ferritin, 25-OH-vitamin D), as well as physiological, subjective ratings of recovery and stress were analysed by correlative and multiple regression analyses. Results show that across all athletes variance in processing speed, selective attention, and working memory, could be best explained through a combination of metabolic hormones with physiological and psychological indicators of stress, and in cognitive flexibility through vitamin D levels. Only for the subgroup of athletes from closed-skill sports, the ratio TNF-α:IL-10 significantly contributed to explanation of variance in working memory and cognitive flexibility. In general, found correlations point to the importance of inflammatory balance and sufficient long-term nutrient supply for unaffected cognitive performance.
