简要总结
This study will evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of Neuro-World cognitive training games (Woorisoft, S. Korea) in patients with mild cognitive impairment.
详细描述
This study will be a cross-over randomized controlled trial.
Fifty participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned to group A or group B.
Group A will self-administer Neuro-World cognitive training games for 30 minutes a day, twice a week for 12 weeks in the home setting (i.e., intervention period). For the following 12 weeks, the participants will not engage in any therapist-supervised cognitive therapies (i.e., no-intervention period).
Group B will not engage in any therapist-supervised cognitive therapies (i.e., no-intervention period). For the following 12 weeks, the participants will self-administer Neuro-World cognitive training games for 30 minutes a day, twice a week in the home setting (i.e., intervention period).
All the participants in both groups will receive phone calls twice a week to 1) provide feedback on their adherence to Neuro-World cognitive training (during the intervention period) and 2) learn any significant changes in the level of their daily activities (during the no-intervention period and the intervention period).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)
时间窗: 12 weeks
MoCA scores range between 0 and 30. Higher scores indicate better cognitive function. The change in MoCA scores was measured from baseline to 12 weeks
次要结局
- Change in Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)(12 weeks)
- Change in Digit Forward Span (DFS)(12 weeks)
- Change in Digit Backward Span (DBS)(12 weeks)
- Change in Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS)(12 weeks)
- Change in Short Form 36 (SF-36) Mental Component Summary Score(12 weeks)
- Change in Lawton-Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IADL)(12 weeks)
