Definitions
- CICI chemotherapy -induced cognitive impairments
- CIPN chemotherapy- induced peripheral neuropathies
- CIPN can present as a progressive and enduring tingling numbness, intense pain and hypersensitivity to cold and touch, beginning in the hands and feet and sometimes involving the arms and legs.
- CIPN is a significant source of distress during treatment, and can be the rate-limiting factor in treatment leading to either dose reduction or, in rare cases, cessation of chemotherapy. These effects are lasting.
- 30% of patients continue to experience CIPN [8] and are irreversible in 10-20% of patients [9].
- CIPN has clear severe negative effects on patients' quality of life, sleep and mood after treatment [9].
- impairments in cognitive testing can occur in the absence of changes in locomotor activity, or anxiety, anhedonia or depressive-like behaviours [16]. Moreover, the cognitive impairments persist longer than allodynia in laboratory rats, indicating that poor performance in cognitive testing is not related to disability associated with pain [11].
- Chemotherapy can lead to inactivity, malaise and lethargy, which can contribute to a downward spiral in health. Interventions that increase voluntary activity could alleviate this, and improve physical, neurological and mental health of cancer survivors.
- Chemotherapy can lead to depression, anxiety, circadian rhythm disorders including impaired sleep, mental health issues, neuropsychiatric and neuropsychological disorders, which can impair quality of life for cancer survivors.
- NAD + precursors nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) have been shown to improve metabolism and reverse aspects of ageing in elderly mice [17].
- Axon degeneration occurs frequently in neurodegenerative diseases and peripheral neuropathies.
- the degeneration of transected axons is delayed in Wallerian degeneration slow (Wlds) mice with the overexpression of a fusion protein with the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) synthetic enzyme, nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (Nmnatl). Both Wld(s) and Nmnatl themselves are functional in preventing axon degeneration in neuronal cultures.
- Wlds nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
- Nmnatl nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase
- anti-cancer treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy has delivered increased survival rates for many cancers, at the cost of severe side effects that have a meaningful impact on survivor quality of life, which in the case of CIPN and cognitive impairment impact the feasibility of ongoing treatment.
- CIPN survivor quality of life
- cognitive impairment impact the feasibility of ongoing treatment.
- Neuronal injury or impairment can have a variety of causes.
- Neuronal injury can cause cognitive deficits such as decreased memory, slower processing speed, decreased concentration/attention, impaired spatial, verbal and visual memory, impaired executive function, impaired social interactions, impaired verbal and non-verbal communication, and impaired social interaction.
- cognitive deficits such as decreased memory, slower processing speed, decreased concentration/attention, impaired spatial, verbal and visual memory, impaired executive function, impaired social interactions, impaired verbal and non-verbal communication, and impaired social interaction.
- Neuronal injury can further cause mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, risk of self harm and suicide, substance addiction and abuse.

- CIPN CIPN arises, and to what degree, is determined by the choice of drug and/or radiotherapy, duration of use, the total amount consumed and whether the patient already has peripheral neuropathy.
- the symptoms are mainly sensory - pain, tingling, numbness, cramps, neuromuscular paralysis and temperature sensitivity - in some cases motor nerves are affected, and occasionally, also, the autonomic nervous system.
- CIPN often follows the first chemotherapy dose and increases in severity as treatment continues, but this progression usually levels off at completion of treatment.
- the platinum-based drugs are the exception; with these drugs, sensation may continue to deteriorate for several months after the end of treatment and CIPN may persist for decades following treatment.
- opioid based drug therapy presents clinical challenges such as opioid addiction, withdrawal symptoms, respiratory depression, constipation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, constipation, and physical dependence.

- the other manifestations are Shy-Drager syndrome (eg, autonomic failure predominates) and sporadic olivopontocerebellar degeneration (sOPCA, cerebellum predominates).
- Ischemic stroke occurs due to a loss of blood supply to part of the brain, initiating the ischemic cascade.
- Brain tissue ceases to function if deprived of oxygen for more than 60 to 90 seconds and after a few hours will suffer irreversible injury possibly leading to death of the tissue, i.e., infarction.
- Atherosclerosis may disrupt the blood supply by narrowing the lumen of blood vessels leading to a reduction of blood flow, by causing the formation of blood clots within the vessel, or by releasing showers of small emboli through the disintegration of atherosclerotic plaques.
- Embolic infarction occurs when emboli formed elsewhere in the circulatory system, typically in the heart as a consequence of atrial fibrilation, or in the carotid arteries. These break off, enter the cerebral circulation, then lodge in and occlude brain blood vessels.
- ischemic penumbra Due to collateral circulation, within the region of brain tissue affected by ischemia there is a spectrum of severity. Thus, part of the tissue may immediately die while other parts may only be injured and could potentially recover.
- the ischemia area where tissue might recover is referred to as the ischemic penumbra.
- ATP adenine triphosphate
- spinal cord injury or myelopathy, is a disturbance of the spinal cord that results in loss of sensation and mobility.
- the two common types of spinal cord injury are: Trauma: automobile accidents, falls, gunshots, diving accidents, etc.
- Disease polio, spinabifida, tumors, Friedreich's ataxia, etc. It is important to note that the spinal cord does not have to be completely severed for there to be a loss of function. In fact, the spinal cord remains intact in most cases of spinal cord injury.
- Traumatic brain injury occurs when a sudden trauma causes brain damage.
- TBI can result from a closed head injury or a penetrating head injury and is one of two subsets of acquired brain injury (ABI). The other subset is non-traumatic brain injury (i.e. stroke, meningitis, anoxia). Parts of the brain that can be damaged include the cerebral hemispheres, cerebellum, and brain stem. Symptoms of a TBI can be mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the extent of the damage to the brain. Outcome can be anything from complete recovery to permanent disability or death. A coma can also affect a child's brain.
- the damage from TBI can be focal, confined to one area of the brain, or diffuse, involving more than one area of the brain. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with concussion (a shaking of the brain in response to sudden motion of the head), diffuse axonal injury, or coma. Localized injuries may be associated with neurobehavioral manifestations, hemiparesis or other focal neurologic deficits.
- Anoxia is a condition in which there is an absence of oxygen supply to an organ's tissues, even if there is adequate blood flow to the tissue. Hypoxia refers to a decrease in oxygen supply rather than a complete absence of oxygen, and ischemia is inadequate blood supply, as is seen in cases in which the brain swells. In any of these cases, without adequate oxygen, a biochemical cascade called the ischemic cascade is unleashed, and the cells of the brain can die within several minutes.
- Post-chemotherapy cognitive impairment is characterized by temporary or long-lasting neurocognitive deficits, including memory loss, decreased processing speed, loss of executive function, and overall reductions in IQ. These problems are broadly applicable to patients receiving chemotherapy, and are of particular problems to patients who have or are receiving chemotherapy during developmentally important phases (e.g., childhood).
