Description
Yanqing Ren and co-authors lay out a trial combining exercise and brain stimulation for frail, forgetful older adults. Muscle loss and mild cognitive impairment reinforce each other through inflammation and a disturbed muscle-brain axis. Exercise supports brain plasticity from the body side, while magnetic pulses boost it.
Fifty-one older adults with both conditions will be assigned by lot for sixteen weeks to exercise plus real stimulation, exercise plus sham, or control. Training mixes a traditional Chinese routine with resistance training; the pulses target the frontal cortex. Muscle fitness, thinking, and well-being are taken at the start, middle, and end.
