VR Cognitive Training for Type 2 Diabetes and Memory Problems
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether virtual-reality brain-training games can help people with type 2 diabetes who are experiencing early memory and thinking problems. Researchers will compare how cognition changes in people using VR training versus standard care over several months.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study screens older adults with type 2 diabetes for early signs of memory or thinking problems, and offers a program to help keep the brain healthy. It aims to find out if a combination of lifestyle changes, mental exercises, and medical support can slow cognitive decline.
This study tests whether a virtual reality cognitive training program can help improve thinking skills in people with mild Parkinson's disease who also have mild cognitive impairment. If you join, you would use a VR headset to do memory and attention exercises, and researchers will check if your thinking abilities get better over time.
This study tests whether new virtual-reality-based balance and movement tests work well for people with type 2 diabetes. Researchers want to see if these tests can safely and accurately measure how well people can move and balance.
This study uses MRI scans to look at a specific brain circuit (the Papez loop) in people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to understand how diabetes might affect brain networks related to memory and emotion.
This study tests if a special computer-based brain training program can help improve thinking and memory in older adults with diabetes who are at risk for dementia. It might help keep your mind sharp as you age.
This study tests whether a virtual reality program that combines thinking exercises and movement can help people with early memory problems or cognitive concerns. Researchers want to see if it's easy to use, helpful, and something people would actually want to do.
