Background/objectives: Sustaining the human brain's hippocampus from atrophy throughout ageing is critical. Exercise is proven to be effective in promoting adaptive hippocampal plasticity, and the hippocampus has a bidirectional relationship with the physical environment. Therefore, this systematic review explores the effects of walking, a simple physical activity in the environment, on hippocampal formation volume changes for lifelong brain and cognitive health.

Objective: Cognitive complaints are commonplace among women living with endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain (CPP); yet, surprisingly few studies have assessed their cognitive functioning. As an initial step to address the resulting knowledge gap, this review aimed to synthesize the current literature reporting on cognition in females with endometriosis-associated CPP, and due to the poverty of endometriosis studies, to draw on data from female cohorts with other chronic pain conditions to gain potentially relevant insights.
Methods: Three database searches were conducted (Scopus, PubMed, and PsycINFO).
