Exercise with or without cognitive training and vitamin D to improve cognition in adults with mild cognitive impairment

JAMA Network Open

About The Study: In this randomized clinical trial, older adults with mild cognitive impairment receiving aerobic-resistance exercises with sequential computerized cognitive training significantly improved cognition, although some results were inconsistent. Vitamin D supplementation had no effect. These findings suggest that this multidomain intervention may improve cognition and potentially delay dementia onset in mild cognitive impairment. 

Authors: Manuel Montero-Odasso, M.D., Ph.D., of the Lawson Health Research Institute in London, Ontario, Canada, is the corresponding author.
