Through this work we were also able to demonstrate that community-dwelling older adults with MCI are capable of, enjoy, and are stimulated by interactive video games. We observed that bowling was enjoyed most, followed by golf. These games were also perceived as offering more mental, social, and physical stimulation. Although the self-perceived level of stimulation may provide useful information, future work is needed to objectively measure the level of mental, social, and physical stimulation provided by interactive video games. Exploratory analyses of our pilot data did not reveal any significant changes on the clinical outcomes. Due to the small sample, interpretation of the effect sizes should be made with caution. We found a medium-sized improvement for global cognition, perceived cognitive ability, and gait speed in favor of the Wii group after 36 hours of active intervention spread over 6 months.

To include older adults with mobility impairments, we did not require participants to stand to play any of the games and did not emphasize the physical nature of the gaming. However, 8/10 participants reported that Wii gaming was “very much” and the other 2 reported “quite” physically stimulating, suggesting that even the minimal effort to play the games may have provided more physical activity than participants typically engage in during their daily routines. There is growing literature supporting the benefits of physical activity for cognitive health (Erickson et al., 2012; Smith et al., 2010) as well as physical functioning. Therefore; the preliminary results here favoring the Wii group may be a due in part to increased physical activity. Future work should examine the unique and combined influence of the cognitive, social, and physical stimulation provided by interactive video games on cognitive health.

There is wide variation across cognitive intervention studies in whether the format is an individual or group setting.

Our original investigation discovered that ZFP36 mRNA expression in CD8+ T lymphocytes from CHB sufferers was diminished byNSC 330507 Hydrochloride 70% (p = .0006 n = 5) when when compared to that in wholesome donors. In distinction, the expression of two other members of the ZFP36 loved ones, ZFP36L1 and ZFP36L2, was not changed (information […]
