Kurzfassung:
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of exercise cognitive combined training (ECCT) compared with non-ECCT on physical function in cognitively healthy older adults. Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials from inception to December 2, 2021, and 22 studies (1,091 participants, M age = 74.90) were included in the meta-review. The Cochrane Risk of Bias and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation tools were used for quality assessments. ECCT improved gait speed (mean difference: 0.06 m/s, 95% CI [confidence interval] [0.02, 0.11] ; 446 participants, 11 studies) and balance (standardized mean difference: 0.38, 95% CI [0.14, 0.61]; 292 participants, seven studies). Simultaneous ECCT, but not nonsimultaneous ECCT, improved gait speed (mean difference: 0.11 m/s, 95% CI [0.07, 0.15] ), balance (standardized mean difference: 0.40, 95% CI [0.16, 0.64] ), and functional mobility (mean difference: −0.85 s, 95% CI [−1.63, −0.07]; 327 participants, nine studies). Future research should focus on the duration and form of ECCT intervention optimal for improving the functional activities of older individuals.
