Artigo Capoeira and brain function: hypotheses and perspectives from a systematic review(Elsevier BV, 2025-03) Monteiro Junior, Renato Sobral; Fernandes, Valter da Rocha; Oliva, Henrique Nunes Pereira; Prudente, Tiago Paiva; Ribeiro, Sidarta Tollendal GomesTo review the literature on brain activation and cognitive network in individuals involved in Capoeira. Additionally, we propose a hypothetical model of brain function in response to Capoeira stimuli. Methods: This systematic review was conducted based on PRISMA guidelines. Articles investigating neurocognitive domains or neurophysiological mechanisms in the brains of individuals involved with Capoeira were retrieved from PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, and Lilacs in July 2024 (PROSPERO CRD42024556159). Outcomes related to neurocognitive domains or brain functionality, such as cortical and subcortical activity, neural circuitry, and oxygen or glucose metabolism, were analyzed. Results: Five articles with a total of 1,365 individuals involved with Capoeira were selected and analyzed. Individuals involved with Capoeira presented alterations in the left hemisphere of the precentral gyrus, the right dorsal premotor cortex, posterior insular cortex, visual cortex, supplementary motor area, and post-central gyrus, among other subregions. Neurocognitive effects were particularly prominent in children. Conclusion: Capoeira practice engages a broad network of brain regions, notably the prefrontal, temporal, and parietal cortices, regions related to motor and cognitive processing. Subcortical regions also seem to be activated in individuals involved in Capoeira, potentially relating to executive control and emotions. This review highlights the neural engagement related to Capoeira exposure, suggesting benefits in motor, cognitive, and emotional processing, which may inspire future research and therapeutic applications of Capoeira
