A recent clinical guideline has recommended regular exercise (twice per week) for patients with MCI as part an overall approach to management. Tai Chi, form light-to-moderate-intensity mind-body exercise, particularly suitable seniors. This review aims summarize epidemiological studies related effects Chi on symptom remission in older adults reveal potential mechanisms. Evidence suggested can improve functions alleviate accompanying symptoms potentially by activating expression signals different brain regions, altering their connectivity, increasing volume, modulating brain-derived neurotropic inflammation factors.

Purpose To systematically research the impact of Tai Chi intervention on cognitive rehabilitation elderly adults with mild impairment (MCI).Materials and methods Both English Chinese databases were searched from inception to December 2019: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web Science, SinoMed database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Traditional Medicine clinical evidence Wanfang knowledge Science Technology Periodical Database. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) quasi-experimental studies that involved older MCI, intervention, outcomes included. The meta-analysis was conducted reported according PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO registration number CRD42019124925).Results Twelve For meta-analysis, exercise had a large beneficial effect global ability long-term delayed recall memory domain. In terms executive ability, moderate significant improving patients’ function.Conclusions results suggest lasting at least 12 weeks frequency three times per week 30–60 min session. shows promise as an alternative mind-body for MCI among elder patients.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONFrom perspective, may be effective patients which is not restricted by condition equipment, manpower, venue.This review suggests includes warm-up, exercise, cool-down period lasts session.It also recommended choose suitable training local conditions, including one-to-one coaching, group training, VCD, visual reality technology some developed regions.

Background: Tai Chi (TC) is a traditional Chinese martial art with demonstrated beneficial effects on physical and mental health. In this study, the authors performed systematic review to assess efficiency of TC in different populations' cognitive function improvement. Design: The present utilized National Knowledge Infrastructure (1915-), Wanfang (1998-), VIP (1989-), Biomedicine databases (1978-), PubMed (1950-), Web Science (1900-), Cochrane Library (1948-), Embase (1974-), EBSCOhost (1922-), OVID (1996-) search identify relevant articles published English from beginning coverage through October 17, 2020.

Abstract Background Dementia is associated with cognitive and functional decline that significantly impacts quality of life. There currently no cure for dementia, thus, it important to manage dementia in the early stages delay deterioration. Previous studies have documented a range health benefits Tai Chi people early-stage however, none systematically integrated these effects their underlying mechanisms. The aims this study were (1) identify neurocognitive, psychological, physical oi (2) explore mechanisms effects.
