Mindfulness for thinking in early Alzheimer's
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if mindfulness training can help protect thinking and memory in early-stage Alzheimer's disease. It compares mindfulness to other activities to see if it slows down memory loss.

This study tests a mind-body program called MAP (Mindfulness-Based Attention Program) for older adults with mild cognitive impairment and stress. Participation may help reduce stress and improve memory and thinking.
This study tests a program that combines mindfulness (focusing your mind) with exercises that challenge your brain and body at the same time. It aims to see if this helps improve thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease who have mild cognitive impairment.
This study tests whether guided exercises targeting memory, thinking skills, and daily habits can help people with mild cognitive impairment (early memory or thinking problems that don't severely impact daily life). You'll participate in a structured rehabilitation program designed to support brain health.
This study tests whether combining mindfulness meditation with balance and walking exercises can help improve memory and thinking skills in people who had a stroke. The trial focuses on people with mild cognitive impairment—difficulty thinking clearly—after stroke recovery.
This study looks at how dementia or mild cognitive impairment affects thinking, daily living, and mood. The goal is to better understand these conditions by doing careful assessments.
This study follows adults 40+ to better understand and track changes in memory and thinking as people age. It groups people with normal thinking, subjective complaints, mild cognitive impairment, early Alzheimer’s, and vascular (blood vessel) related brain changes to find what predicts progression.
