Dehydration & Cognition
Impact of hydration status on attention, working memory and processing speed. Includes studies with subclinical deficits from 1% of body weight loss.
Systematic curation of the intersection between dehydration, fibromyalgia and cognitive function — for physicians who need rigorous evidence and patients who need clear answers.
Each axis is a PubMed query structured by PICO, with classified evidence strength and dual summaries — for the clinician and for the patient.
Impact of hydration status on attention, working memory and processing speed. Includes studies with subclinical deficits from 1% of body weight loss.
Subjective and objective cognitive dysfunction in fibromyalgia: deficits in executive function, sustained attention and processing speed documented in adult patients.
Pain modulation by hydration status via central sensitization. Studies on nociceptive amplification, sleep and fluid intake as a bidirectional cycle in chronic pain.
DFFCO's central hypothesis postulates that subclinical hypohydration amplifies pain via central sensitization, deteriorates sleep and further reduces fluid intake — closing the cycle that sustains fibrofog.

Each study goes through four curation stages — from which we publish every decision, query and criterion.
Population, Intervention, Comparator and Outcome translated into MeSH terms and text words with auditable boolean operators.
Pre-declared inclusion criteria. Each article is manually classified by study type, evidence strength and clinical relevance.
Adapted GRADE: High, Moderate, Low. Risk of bias assessed with RoB 2 (RCTs) and ROBINS-I (observational).
Each article receives a technical summary for the clinician and a plain-language summary for the patient — reviewed separately.
Systematic curation that saves bibliographic search time, with rigorous classification.
Science already has some answers about what you feel. Here they are, without jargon.
"My fiancée has fibromyalgia, cognitive deficit and doesn't drink water. The question — is there a relationship between all this? — became this platform."
DFFCO is an evidence platform, but the heart is a real story. That's why we never talk about patients — we talk with them. And that's why each study passes through the same filter: would this help the person we love understand better what they feel?
