Accelerated Age-related Cognitive Decline: Impact of Exercise on Executive Function and Neuroplasticity

Trial No results yet Not peer reviewed

Key takeaways

This is a study that is starting, so there are no results yet. It will test whether 6 months of walking at home improves memory in older adults who have chronic kidney disease along with mild memory problems. The walking group will be compared with a group that gets health education instead. Researchers will also scan the brain to see if its structure and activity change.
