NCT05225181

Brief Summary

This study aims to (1) determine the intervention effects of sequential and simultaneous training on cognitive function and health-related function for cognitively-normal elderly and elderly with Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) and Subjective Cognitive Decline(SCD); (2) compare which combination approach is more advantageous for improvement on outcome measures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Change scores of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA).

    The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) will be used to assess general cognitive functions. It examines several cognitive domains with a total score of 30 and higher values indicate better cognitive functions. The MoCA has been shown to be a valid and promising tool to evaluate the global cognitive function in patients with stroke. The psychometric properties of MoCA are good to excellent for patients with cerebrovascular diseases.

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS)

    including Faces Recognition (total scale=48), Verbal Paired Associates (total scale = 32), Word Lists (total scale = 48), and Spatial Span (total scale=32) will be used to assess the immediate, delayed, and working memory tests. For each subtest, a higher number indicates better performance in memory function. The raw score of subtests will also be transferred to standardized Z scores and summed to represent an index of general memory function.

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Stroop test

    The participants will be tested under congruent and incongruent conditions. In the congruent condition, the participant will name the color ink of a word which is consistent with the written color name; whereas in the incongruent condition the participant will name the color ink differs from the written color name. The time to complete the task will be calculated for each condition

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Color trials test

    For Part 1, the respondent uses a pencil to rapidly connect circles numbered 1-25 in sequence. For Part 2, the respondent rapidly connects numbered circles in sequence, but alternates between pink and yellow. The length of time to complete each trial is recorded, along with qualitative features of performance indicative of brain dysfunction, such as near-misses, prompts, number sequence errors, and color sequence errors.

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Change scores of Verbal fluency tests

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale; WAIS

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of the short (12-item) form of the Everyday Cognition Scale (ECog-12)

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Dual-task tests

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • Change scores of Six-minute walk test,6MWT

    baseline, after the intervention eight weeks, and at 3-month follow-up.

  • +11 more secondary outcomes
