Does resistance exercise combined with cognitive intervention therapy improve cognitive decline in a cognitively declining elderly population?
A dual-task therapy combining resistance exercise and cognitive intervention shows feasibility and acceptability in elderly patients with cognitive decline.
Supports larger efficacy trials for cognitive benefits in elderly decline; extends feasibility data for combined resistance and cognitive interventions.
Overall, we found support for the feasibility and acceptability of the product developed by dual-task therapy based on resistance exercise combined with cognitive intervention and showed the initial impact prospect of moderate-intensity resistance exercise. Future applications should be replicated in older individuals with Clinical trial registration: NCT06220565 Ethical approval: H2022013I decline.
