Descripción detallada
Background and study aims:
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or minor neurocognitive disorder is a syndrome defined as an intermediate stage between cognitively intact and clinically diagnosed dementia. The age-adjusted prevalence of MCI in Taiwan is approximately 18%, while women have higher prevalence for MCI than men. The progression rate from MCI to dementia ranges from 10 to 15% each year, and over 50% of the MCI population will develop into severe cognitive impairment or dementia in 5 years. Therefore, early detection of the individuals who manifest MCI and provide appropriate interventions may help reduce the burden of their caregivers and the medical expenses of the health-care system. Previous studies found that cognitive training or exercise has emerged as an important therapeutic approach for individuals with MCI. However, the intervention effects of combining exercise and cognitive training remain to be determined. Furthermore, whether exercise and cognitive training should be administered in sequential order or simultaneously is an important question to pursue. The overall goal of this study is to determine and compare the intervention effects cognitive training, exercise, and combining cognitive and exercise training in individuals with MCI.
Who can participate? Individuals with MCI.
What does the study involve? The participants will receive a total of 36 training sessions, and each session will contain 90 minutes of training. Training frequency will be 2-3 times per week for 12-18 weeks. All participants will received pretreatment test, post treatment test, and a 6-month follow-up test.
What are the possible benefits and risks of participating? The possible benefits include improvement in cognitive, physical, and daily functions. There are no risks for participating.
Where to conduct the study? The investigators anticipate recruiting a total of 80 participants from geriatric day care centers and nursing homes from multiple cities in Taiwan.

Intervención / Tratamiento |
---|---|
Comparador activo: Cognitive training group (Cog)
The BrainHQ program will be used to train different cognitive functions of the participants.
The participants will practice tasks that involve the abilities of visuospatial processing, attention, memory, language, and/or executive functions.
The tasks will become more difficult as the participants progress in their abilities.
|
visuospatial, attention, memory, and executive abilities
|
Comparador activo: Physical exercise group (PE)
The participants in this group participate in multimodal exercise programs including aerobic exercise, balance, and strength training.
The entire exercise program for the PE group will contain 10 minutes of warm-up, 70 minutes of physical exercise, and 10 minutes of cool-down.
The 70 minutes of exercise session will be break up into 2 to 3 parts, and the participants can rest as needed during the exercise period.
|
endurance, balance, and mobility
|
Experimental: Sequential training group (Seq)
The participants in this group will first perform 45 minutes of physical exercise followed by 45 minutes of cognitive training.
The physical exercise training will be similar to the programs used in the PE group.
The entire exercise program for the PE group will contain 5 minutes of warm-up, 35 minutes of physical exercise, and 5 minutes of cool-down.
The cognitive training will be implemented with BrainHQ similar to what has been described in the COG group.
|
visuospatial, attention, memory, and executive abilities
endurance, balance, and mobility
|
Experimental: Dual-task training group (Dual)
In this group, the participants will be instructed to perform physical exercise and cognitive tasks simultaneously (e.g., math calculation while stepping).
The difficulty of the cognitive tasks will increase as the participants improve in their performance.

|
The MoCA will be used to assess general cognitive functions.
It examines several cognitive domains with a total score of 30.

Change scores of Stroop test
Periodo de tiempo: baseline, posttest (an expected average of 3 months), follow-up (up to 9 months)
|
The Stroop test will be used to assess the processing speed, inhibition, set-shifting, and selective attention abilities.
The participants will be tested under 2 conditions: congruent and incongruent conditions.
In the congruent condition, the color ink of a word is consistent with the written color name; while the color ink differs from the written color name under the incongruent condition.

|
Change scores of Dual-task test
Periodo de tiempo: baseline, posttest (an expected average of 3 months), follow-up (up to 9 months)
|
The dual-task tests will be assessed to determine the ability for an individual to perform 2 tasks simultaneously.
The investigators will assess the dual-task performance during walking and performing box and block test.
The results of the dual-task tests will provide information regarding to whether the 2 tasks compete for the same class of neural resources or one of the tasks can be carried out automatically.

|
Change scores of Timed up and go (TUG) test
Periodo de tiempo: baseline, posttest (an expected average of 3 months), follow-up (up to 9 months)
|
The TUG test will be used to assess the mobility and dynamic balance ability.
The participants will be required to stand up from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, then walk back to the chair, and sit down.
The time to complete the TUG test has been shown to be a good indicator to detect potential fallers and frail elderly (Podsiadlo & Richardson, 1991).
The test-retest reliability of TUG on individuals with cognitive impairment was excellent (Blankevoort, van Heuvelen, & Scherder, 2013).
