IntroductionExergame-based training is emerging as the most effective exercise modality for improving cognition, yet its neural correlates remain largely unexplored. This study explored gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) changes following the addition of ‘Brain-IT’ training to usual care in mild neurocognitive disorder (mNCD) and their associations with cognitive performance changes.MethodsWe included 41 participants… Continue reading Structural brain improvements following individually tailored serious #exergame-based training in mild #neurocognitive disorders: exploratory randomized controlled trial

Playing analog #games is associated with reduced declines in #cognitive function: a 68 year longitudinal cohort study
..Our goal was to examine the association between playing games and change in cognitive function from age 11 to age 70, and from age 70 to 79.. Higher frequency of playing games was associated with higher cognitive function at age 70, controlling for age 11 cognitive function, and the majority of this association could not… Continue reading Playing analog #games is associated with reduced declines in #cognitive function: a 68 year longitudinal cohort study
