Exercise program to improve thinking in older adults with mild memory trouble
Part of Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise plan can improve executive thinking (like planning and task control) in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Researchers also look for brain changes using an MRI.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re older than 55
- You have stage 3–4 chronic kidney disease (with eGFR between about 20 and under 60)
- You have mild cognitive impairment on a memory/thinking test (MOCA about 18 to 26)
- You can have an MRI scan (no metal/implants and you can complete the scan)
- You do not have major heart problems that make exercise unsafe (your clinician would need to confirm this)
- You have no history of head injury with loss of consciousness and you can do the study in English

This study looks at whether a structured, tablet-based program plus regular exercise can help people with mild memory changes. It mainly targets adults who have mild cognitive impairment (MCI) but not dementia.
This trial tests if a supervised exercise program can improve thinking skills and daily function in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help slow memory decline and keep you independent longer.
This study tests whether regular physical exercise can improve memory and thinking skills in people 65 and older who have mild cognitive impairment. Researchers want to see if staying active helps protect brain function.
This study tests whether a mix of physical exercise and computer brain training can improve working memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help by strengthening memory skills and supporting brain health through supervised activity and computer-based practice.
This study tests an “adaptive” exercise plan that adjusts over time to help improve aerobic fitness and your body’s fitness response in people with mild memory problems or early Alzheimer’s. It may help you safely build the kind of fitness that supports brain health, while researchers monitor changes with fitness testing and blood work.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help older adults with chronic kidney disease improve their physical function and stay active. You have to be able to do exercise and not be on dialysis.
