This study tests whether a personalized exercise program can help improve memory, thinking ability, and physical strength in people aged 60–85 with mild cognitive impairment (early memory or thinking problems that don't severely affect daily life). The goal is to see if exercise can slow or improve these changes.
This study tests if combining two types of exercise (LSVT Big and dual-task training) can improve balance and thinking in older adults with mild to moderate memory loss. It may help you stay steady on your feet and manage everyday tasks more easily.
This study tests whether a combination of strength training and 'dual-task' exercises (like walking while counting backwards) can improve balance, eye movements, and thinking skills in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help you keep your memory and physical abilities stronger for longer.
This study looks at whether adding gaze stability exercises (eye and head movements) to balance training can improve thinking, balance, and walking steadiness in older adults with mild memory problems. It may help those who can follow simple instructions and join in physical activity.
This trial tests a type of training that challenges you to do two tasks at once to help with thinking and movement. It is for people over 55 who may have mild memory problems but do not have major brain, heart, or lung conditions.
This trial tests if a supervised exercise program can improve thinking skills and daily function in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help slow memory decline and keep you independent longer.
