- Memory training combined with 3D visuospatial stimulus improves cognitive performance in the elderly: pilot study(2020) ASSED, Mariana Medeiros; ROCCA, Cristiana Castanho de Almeida; GARCIA, Yolanda Maria; KHAFIF, Tatiana Cohab; BELIZARIO, Gabriel Okawa; TOSCHI-DIAS, Edgar; SERAFIM, Antonio de PáduaABSTRACT. Studies suggest that the engagement of aged participants in cognitive stimulation programs can reduce expected cognitive decline associated with age. Objective: To evaluate the effects of memory training (MT) associated with three-dimensional multiple object tracking (3D-MOT) NeuroTracker (NT) in the elderly. Methods: Forty-four participants (>60 years of age) were recruited and randomly distributed into two groups: experimental (EG; n=22) and comparative (CG; n=22). Both groups performed 12 one-hour MT sessions, twice a week, consisting of specific computerized stimuli associated with teaching of mnemonic strategies; 10 minutes of NT was part only of the EG’s sessions. In pre- and post-training periods, both groups were evaluated using a sociodemographic questionnaire, neuropsychological assessment, as well as a specific measure offered by NT. Results: Both groups benefited from the MT and reported more positive feelings regarding their memory and quality of life. However, the EG obtained better results in tests consistent with the strategies trained and which involved attentional resources, reaction time, visual processing speed, episodic, semantic, subjective and working memory as well as aspects of social cognition. Conclusions: This study showed that the combination of MT and 3D-MOT contributed for a better cognitive performance in the EG. Thus, the results of the present study encourage further research and the development of combined cognitive interventions for the elderly population with and without cognitive deficits.

Are contemporary manual acupuncture practices consistent with those reported in the ZJJYJ? The aim of this research was to investigate if modern manual acupuncture uses reported in research are consistent with classical practices reported in the ZJJYJ. Materials and Methods: A database search of human research studies from 1995 to 2016 was performed for all 270 acupoints for all 8 leg/body channels. The clinical foci of these modern publications were compared with acupoint clinical indications documented in the Song Dynasty Chinese edition (1077) of the ZJJYJ and the sole English translation (translated and compiled by Yang and Chace in 1994) of The Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion. Results: Of 2149 articles in English, 63 met the search criteria. These articles predominately reported acupoints on the lower leg, back, chest, and head. Correlations between the acupoints used in modern research and those used in the ZJJYJ were minimal. Clinical indications from the ZJJYJ typically involved symptoms relating to pain, swelling, fever, seizures, hallucinatory states, dysentery, malaria, and tuberculosis, which are now treated pharmacologically. However, one-third of modern studies were functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) investigations of neurophysiologic effects of manual acupuncture on the human brain. Conclusions: While, superficially, the ZJJYJ might seem irrelevant in modern manual acupuncture practices, well-documented physical effects (e.g., pain relief) of manual acupuncture do provide measurable outcomes for use in fMRI research. Therefore, the classical text does provide a guide for future research on influential acupoints on the leg and body channels.
