Description
Francesca Marino and co-authors check if brain training trials include older adults with hearing or sight loss. Their review from 2023 notes that such loss is common in later life and raises the risk of thinking decline. If trials shut this group out, their results may not fit those most at risk.
The review covered one hundred thirty trial papers. More than half shut out people with hearing or sight loss in a set way. Few trials measured or reported such loss among those who took part. Fewer still built in features to help low hearing or sight users take part. The authors call for wider entry and better reporting in future trials.
