Memory Training Using Movement for Early Alzheimer's Disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether learning memory strategies through physical movement and motor activities can help people with early Alzheimer's disease improve their memory. Researchers will compare people with early Alzheimer's to healthy older adults to see if this approach is effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Diagnosis of early-stage Alzheimer's disease confirmed by a neurologist or geriatrician
- Memory impairment that you are aware of, with an MMSE score of 21 or higher (a brief memory test)
- Age 60 or older
- French as your native language
- No uncorrected vision or hearing problems that would prevent you from participating
- No significant language or movement difficulties, and not currently taking medications that affect vision, language, or movement

This study looks at how “slower movement” and brain changes relate to memory and thinking problems in people with early dementia (and some related conditions). It may help researchers understand what brain differences go with these symptoms, using tests and an MRI scan.
This study tests whether combining physical exercises with mental tasks can improve thinking and memory in people with mild Alzheimer's disease. You would do simple activities that use both your brain and body at the same time.
This study looks at whether light-to-moderate physical activity (like walking or stretching) can help memory and thinking in middle-aged and older adults. People with normal thinking, mild memory problems, or Parkinson's disease may join if they aren't already very active.
This study tests a combined cognitive (brain) and motor (movement) training program for older adults with mild memory problems. The goal is to see if this training can improve thinking and daily function.
This study tests two types of training—cognitive (brain) and movement exercises—for people with mild-to-moderate dementia. The goal is to see if these activities together can help improve thinking, memory, and physical function.
This study tests whether a 12-month exercise program can help protect memory and thinking skills in older adults who have noticed changes in their memory. You would be asked to exercise at home and attend some group classes.
