U.S., Sept. 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07841145) titled 'The Efficacy of HD-tDCS-Augmented Step Training in Older Adults With Mild Dementia' on Sept. 19.
Brief Summary: Falls and mobility decline are major health concerns among older adults with dementia, often linked to deterioration in executive function and cognitive-motor control. Step training interventions that challenge both cognitive and motor faculties have shown promise in enhancing balance and motor reaction to reduce fall risk. However, long-term retention of training gains remains limited, largely constrained by reduced neuroplasticity and underlying neurodegeneration in this population.
