Memory and thinking study for older adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how memory and thinking skills change in older adults living in the Yuyuan community. By taking part, you'll help researchers learn more about brain health in aging, and you'll have free health check-ups like memory tests and brain scans.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows people who are closely related to someone diagnosed with Alzheimer’s to see who develops memory or brain changes over time. It may help researchers understand risk and early signs, which could guide prevention in families like yours.
This study uses brain scans and thinking tests to build a standard for how older adults in Macau normally perform. You might join to help researchers understand healthy aging and improve future care.
This study tests a digital tool that may help detect early signs of memory decline in people aged 50 and older. If you join, you'll help doctors learn if this tool can find memory issues earlier in community settings.
This trial looks at people over age 50 who have mild thinking or memory problems but do not have dementia by standard clinical criteria. It tests how these early changes are characterized and measured using exams such as blood tests and brain scans, which may help improve understanding and future care.
This trial tests a program that combines memory and thinking exercises with physical activities to see if it can help older adults with mild memory complaints. If you join, you'll get a structured training routine that may help slow down further memory decline.
