This systematic literature review addressed the efficacy of 15 cognitive intervention programs that have been tested in individuals presenting with mild cognitive impairment of the amnestic type (MCI-A) possibly at risk to progress toward dementia. MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and Current Content databases were searched using the following key terms: cognitive training, cognitive stimulation, cognitive r...

Cognitive interventions in healthy older adults and people with mild cognitive impairment: a systematic review.

The purpose of the present review was to update the recent systematic reviews of Papp et al. (2009) and Martin et al. (2011), to evalua...

Treatment for mild cognitive impairment: systematic review.

BACKGROUND More people are presenting with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), frequently a precursor to dementia, but we do not know how to reduce deterioration.
