Brain stimulation for language in mild cognitive decline
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of gentle brain stimulation (called temporal interference) to see if it can improve language processing in people with mild cognitive impairment. The stimulation uses electrodes placed on the head and is done while you are in an MRI scanner.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a specific type of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) – either with Lewy bodies, related to Parkinson's disease, or the amnestic type (memory problems).
- You must not have a serious psychiatric illness like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
- You should not have other brain diseases like a past stroke or multiple sclerosis.
- No severe head injury in the past.
- You must not have any metal in your body that is unsafe for MRI, like a pacemaker.

This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique to help improve working memory (the ability to hold and use information briefly) in people with mild cognitive impairment related to Parkinson's disease or Lewy body disease. The stimulation targets deep brain structures without surgery.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment can improve sentence understanding in people with Parkinson’s disease–related mild cognitive impairment or mild cognitive impairment from Lewy body disease. It also compares results with healthy volunteers who do not have Lewy body or other memory/brain disorders.
This study tests a new brain stimulation technique called temporal interference stimulation to help slow cognitive decline in people with Alzheimer's disease or frontotemporal dementia. Researchers will combine this stimulation with cognitive training to see if it improves memory and thinking skills.
This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation to see if it can improve memory and thinking skills in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (early memory loss that isn't yet dementia). Participants will receive the stimulation treatment and have their cognitive function monitored over time.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporal interference stimulation to see if it can improve memory and balance during daily activities in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. The goal is to find a safe, drug-free way to support brain health.
This study tests whether combining brain stimulation (TMS) with cognitive training games can help people with mild cognitive impairment—early memory and thinking problems. The goal is to see if this combination improves thinking abilities and slows cognitive decline.
