Summary

This study looks at why older breast cancer survivors often have faster declines in memory and thinking after chemotherapy. Researchers will track 152 women aged 60-85 who finished chemo at least a year ago, measuring their diet, exercise, stress, sleep, blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood vessel health. The goal is to find which factors might speed up or slow down brain function problems, so better personalized care plans can be created.
