Abstract

Objectives

To investigate the efficacy of an intervention combining motor–cognitive training with arch support insoles for older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

Methods

Twenty-nine participants were randomly assigned to an experimental or a control group. The experimental group underwent a 12-week intervention programme comprising three 1-hour motor–cognitive training sessions weekly and wore arch support insoles every day. The control group received motor–cognitive training alone. The functional reach, timed-up-and-go (TUG), 10-m hurdle walking test, Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were administered before and after the interventions.

Results

The experimental group exhibited significant improvement across all assessments (p < .05), whereas the control group demonstrated significant improvement only in the TUG test, the 5× chair stand subtest of the SPPB, and MoCA scores (p < .05).

Conclusions

The proposed intervention is recommended for improving cognitive and physical performance in older adults with MCI.

运动认知训练和足弓支撑鞋垫联合干预对改善轻度认知障碍老年人身体表现的有效性：一项随机对照试验

目的探讨运动认知训练结合足弓支撑鞋垫对老年人轻度认知障碍（MCI）的干预效果。方法将29名受试者随机分为实验组和对照组。实验组接受了为期12周的干预计划，包括每周3次1小时的运动认知训练，每天穿着足弓支撑鞋垫。对照组单独接受运动认知训练。在干预前后分别进行功能伸展、计时起跑（TUG）、10米跨栏步行测试、短时间体能测试（SPPB）和蒙特利尔认知评估（MoCA）。结果实验组在各项评估中均有显著改善(p <；.05)，而对照组仅在TUG测试、SPPB的5×椅架子测试和MoCA得分上有显著改善(p <；. 05)。结论该干预措施可改善老年轻度认知损伤患者的认知和身体功能。
