Abstract

Background

Individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) typically exhibit cognitive deficits. While single bouts of physical activity (PA) have shown cognitive benefits in typically developing individuals, the effects on those with ID are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of single bouts of PA on cognition in individuals with ID.

Method

This registered review followed the PRISMA guidelines and searched for eligible studies on PubMed and Scopus.

Results

Eight studies were included, showing that participants demonstrated transient improvements in cognition, including information processing speed, inhibition and working memory, following moderate aerobic-based intensity PA. However, findings regarding the optimal intensity or types of PA for enhancing specific cognitions, and the effects on higher-level cognition (e.g., planning), are limited.

Conclusions

Single bouts of PA may transiently enhance cognition in adolescents and young adults with mild to moderate ID, but more rigorous research with a feasible protocol is required to refine exercise prescriptions for maximal cognitive benefits.

单次体育锻炼对智障青少年认知能力的影响：系统回顾

智力障碍患者通常表现为认知缺陷。虽然单次体育锻炼（PA）在正常发育的个体中显示出认知益处，但对ID患者的影响尚不清楚。本研究旨在探讨单次PA对ID患者认知能力的影响。方法本注册综述遵循PRISMA指南，检索PubMed和Scopus中符合条件的研究。结果纳入的8项研究显示，在适度有氧运动强度PA后，参与者在认知方面表现出短暂的改善，包括信息处理速度、抑制和工作记忆。然而，关于增强特定认知的最佳强度或类型以及对高级认知（如规划）的影响的研究结果有限。结论：单次PA可能会短暂地增强轻度至中度ID的青少年和年轻人的认知能力，但需要更严格的研究和可行的方案来完善运动处方，以获得最大的认知益处。
