Background and Purpose: The lack of cognitive activity accelerates age cognitive decline. Cognitive stimulation (CS) tries to enhance cognitive functioning. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effects of CS on cognitive outcomes (general cognitive functioning and specific cognitive domains) in older adults (aged 65 years or older, cognitively healthy participants, or with mild cognitive impairment, or dementia). Methods: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science databases were examined from inception to October 2021. A total of 1,997 studies were identified in these databases, and. 33 studies were finally included in the systematic review and the meta-analysis. Raw means and standard deviations were used for continuous outcomes. Publication bias was examined by Egger’s Regression Test for Funnel Plot Asymmetry and the quality assessment tools from the National Institutes of Health. Results: CS significantly improves general cognitive functioning (mean difference =MD=1.536,95%CI,0.832=\mathrm{MD}=1.536,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.832 to 2.240 ), memory ( MD=0.365,95%CI,0.300\mathrm{MD}=0.365,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.300 to 0.430 ), orientation ( MD=0.428,95%CI,0.306\mathrm{MD}=0.428,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.306 to 0.550 ), praxis ( MD=0.278,95%CI,0.094\mathrm{MD}=0.278,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.094 to 0.462 ) and calculation ( MD=0.228,95%CI,0.112\mathrm{MD}=0.228,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.112 to 0.343 ). Conclusion: CS seems to increase general cognitive functioning, memory, orientation, praxis, and calculation in older adults. 背景與目的:缺乏認知活動會加速年齡相關的認知衰退。認知刺激(CS)旨在增強認知功能。本系統性回顧和元分析的目的是評估 CS 對老年人(65 歲或以上,認知健康參與者,或輕度認知障礙,或癡呆症)的認知結果(一般認知功能和特定認知領域)的影響。方法:檢查了 PubMed、Scopus 和 Web of Science 數據庫,範圍從創建至 2021 年 10 月。在這些數據庫中共識別出 1,997 項研究,最終有 33 項研究被納入系統性回顧和元分析。對於連續結果,使用原始均值和標準差。通過 Egger 回歸檢驗漏斗圖不對稱性和國立衛生研究院的質量評估工具來檢查出版偏倚。結果:CS 顯著改善一般認知功能(均值差異 =MD=1.536,95%CI,0.832=\mathrm{MD}=1.536,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.832 至 2.240)、記憶( MD=0.365,95%CI,0.300\mathrm{MD}=0.365,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.300 至 0.430)、定向( MD=0.428,95%CI,0.306\mathrm{MD}=0.428,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.306 至 0.550)、實踐( MD=0.278,95%CI,0.094\mathrm{MD}=0.278,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.094 至 0.462)和計算( MD=0.228,95%CI,0.112\mathrm{MD}=0.228,95 \% \mathrm{CI}, 0.112 至 0.343)。 結論:CS 似乎能提高老年人的一般認知功能、記憶、定向、實踐能力和計算能力。
1. Introduction 1. 介紹
Cognitive function decline is a common phenomenon on that occurs with age (Mahncke et al., 2006). The cognitive alterations have received a lot of attention in aging by the scientific community, especially on memory alterations (Novoa et al., 2008). Late-life cognitive decline ranges from normal, mildest, through mild cognitive impairment (MCI), to dementia as most severe form (Millán-Calenti et al., 2012). 認知功能衰退是隨著年齡增長而常見的現象(Mahncke et al., 2006)。認知變化在老年中受到科學界的廣泛關注,特別是記憶變化(Novoa et al., 2008)。晚年認知衰退範圍從正常、輕微的,通過輕度認知障礙(MCI),到最嚴重的形式——癡呆(Millán-Calenti et al., 2012)。
In fact, perception, processing speed, attention, memory (Burke & Barnes, 2006) and executive function (Kaido et al., 2020) deteriorate during aging, thus cognitively healthy elderly subjects also have complaints in the ability to acquire, consolidate and remember new information. 事實上,感知、處理速度、注意力、記憶(Burke & Barnes, 2006)以及執行功能(Kaido et al., 2020)在老化過程中會惡化,因此認知健康的老年受試者在獲取、鞏固和記住新資訊的能力上也會有抱怨。
MCI describes a stage of intermediate cognitive dysfunction, where the risk of conversion to dementia is increased, however, it is also possible that people diagnosed with MCI could revert to a normal cognitive state without deterioration over time (Gauthier et al., 2006). Cognitive problems in MCI include difficulties in memory, language, attention, orientation, calculation, abilities visuospatial and executive functions while the language is preserved (Langa & Levine, 2014). The prevalence of MCI in adults above 65 years is estimated around 18,5% (). Memory failures are predictors of future dementia in MCI subjects and vary depending on the level of cognitive impairment (Wolfsgruber et al., 2014). The probability that an MCI patient will develop dementia within 10 years of initial MCI diagnosis is 4.35 times than a healthy subject (Zhu et al., 2001). 輕度認知障礙(MCI)描述了一種中度認知功能障礙的階段,在這個階段,轉變為癡呆的風險增加,然而,診斷為 MCI 的人也有可能在沒有惡化的情況下恢復到正常的認知狀態(Gauthier et al., 2006)。MCI 中的認知問題包括記憶、語言、注意力、定向、計算、視空間能力和執行功能的困難,而語言能力則保持完整(Langa & Levine, 2014)。65 歲以上成人中 MCI 的流行率估計約為 18.5%()。記憶失誤是 MCI 患者未來癡呆的預測指標,並根據認知障礙的程度而有所不同(Wolfsgruber et al., 2014)。MCI 患者在初次診斷後 10 年內發展為癡呆的概率是健康個體的 4.35 倍(Zhu et al., 2001)。
Dementia is the supreme worldwide burden for welfare and the health care system in the 21st century. The estimated number of people with dementia will increase from 47 million in 2015 to more than 140 million in 2050. As deterioration increases in patients with dementia, the costs of daily activity assistance and medical care also increase (Alzheimer’s Disease International. 2013). Expenditure on long-term care services for older people with cognitive impairment in 2031, it may range between 0.83%0.83 \% and 1.11%1.11 \% of the Gross Domestic Product; these figures do not include the costs of informal care (Comas-Herrera & Knapp, 2016). 癡呆症是 21 世紀全球福利和醫療系統的主要負擔。預計癡呆症患者的數量將從 2015 年的 4700 萬增加到 2050 年的超過 1.4 億。隨著癡呆症患者的病情惡化,日常活動協助和醫療護理的成本也隨之增加(阿茲海默症國際組織,2013)。到 2031 年,對於認知障礙老年人的長期護理服務支出可能會在國內生產總值的 0.83%0.83 \% 到 1.11%1.11 \% 之間;這些數字不包括非正式護理的成本(Comas-Herrera & Knapp,2016)。

Cognitive stimulation (CS) plays an important role in learning and memory (Mather, 2020) and could offer beneficial effects on cognitive reserve and dementia risk (Collins et al., 2021). Moreover, the lack of cognitive activity accelerates cognitive decline (Woods et al., 2012); being able to accelerate the deterioration of both cognitively healthy elderly subjects and patients with dementia (Salthouse, 2006), therefore it should be started the as soon as possible (Woods et al., 2012). CS was defined by Clare & Woods, (2004) as “engagement in a range of group activities and discussions (usually in a group), aimed at general enhancement of cognitive and social functioning”. On the one hand, it differs from cognitive training, that is, guided practice on a set of standard tasks to improve a specific cognitive function, and, on the other hand, from cognitive rehabilitation, an individualized approach aimed at improving performance in the daily life to achieve preselected personal goals. 認知刺激(CS)在學習和記憶中扮演著重要角色(Mather, 2020),並可能對認知儲備和癡呆風險產生有益影響(Collins et al., 2021)。此外,缺乏認知活動會加速認知衰退(Woods et al., 2012);能夠加速認知健康老年人和癡呆患者的惡化(Salthouse, 2006),因此應儘早開始(Woods et al., 2012)。CS 由 Clare & Woods(2004)定義為“參與一系列小組活動和討論(通常在小組中),旨在一般增強認知和社交功能”。一方面,它與認知訓練不同,即在一組標準任務上進行指導性練習以改善特定的認知功能;另一方面,它也不同於認知康復,這是一種個性化的方法,旨在改善日常生活中的表現,以實現預先選定的個人目標。
CS includes different types of approaches such as: (1) reality orientation, which involves constant repetition of everyday life facts, (basic but important information, referring to person, place and time (Cafferata et al., 2021; Massoud & Léger, 2011); (2) validation, focuses on the attitude of respect, empathic listening and the person’s subjective experience as opposed to objective facts (Cafferata et al., 2021; Spector et al., 2001); (3) reminiscence, consists of talking about past events and reflecting on the person’s life, often with the help of props such as photographs, music, videos and objects (Cafferata et al., 2021; Lobbia et al., 2019; Spector et al., 2001); (4) multisensory therapy, is based on stimulation of the sense organs (smell, touch, vision, taste, and hearing), and includes activities such as fruit tasting, singing, and dancing (Kor et al., 2022); (5) cognitive activities, are activities designed for the prevention of cognitive function impairments (Calatayud et al., 2020; De Oliveira et al., 2014; Gomez-Soria et al., 2020) and (6) implicit learning, focused on acquiring knowledge about the structure of the environment without conscious awareness (Spector et al., 2010). CS 包括不同類型的方法,例如:(1) 現實導向,涉及對日常生活事實的持續重複(基本但重要的信息,指人、地點和時間(Cafferata et al., 2021; Massoud & Léger, 2011);(2) 驗證,專注於尊重的態度、同理心的傾聽和個人的主觀經驗,而非客觀事實(Cafferata et al., 2021; Spector et al., 2001);(3) 回憶,包含談論過去事件並反思個人的生活,通常借助於道具如照片、音樂、視頻和物品(Cafferata et al., 2021; Lobbia et al., 2019; Spector et al., 2001);(4) 多感官療法,基於對感官器官(嗅覺、觸覺、視覺、味覺和聽覺)的刺激,包括水果品嚐、唱歌和跳舞等活動(Kor et al., 2022);(5) 認知活動,旨在預防認知功能障礙的活動(Calatayud et al., 2020; De Oliveira et al., 2014; Gomez-Soria et al.)。,2020)和(6)隱性學習,專注於在沒有意識的情況下獲取有關環境結構的知識(Spector et al.,2010)。
CS programs, which combine cognitive, emotional, and physical activities using various elements, can stimulate various aspects of cognitive function, making them more effective than single component programs. Furthermore, they have the advantage of arousing more the interest of the participants and encouraging a more active participation (Reijnders et al., 2013). In the UK, CS was firstly recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence NICE SCIE Guidelines have been upgraded in the recent revision (Duff, 2018) to improve cognition in people with mild to moderate dementia. In addition, CS is explicitly recommended in three criteria of a standard for psychosocial interventions by the National Memory Services Accreditation Program (MSNAP) (Hodge et al. 2016). CS is a cost-effective psychosocial intervention, recommended by national guidance (Dickinson et al., 2017). Therefore, different reviews and meta-analyses have evaluated the impact of CS on general cognitive functioning (Aguirre et al., 2013; Cafferata et al. 2021; Kim et al., 2017; Lobbia et al., 2019; Saragih et al., CS 計劃結合了認知、情感和身體活動,使用各種元素,可以刺激認知功能的各個方面,使其比單一組件計劃更有效。此外,它們還具有激發參與者更多興趣和鼓勵更積極參與的優勢(Reijnders et al., 2013)。在英國,CS 首次由國家健康與臨床卓越研究所(NICE)推薦,SCIE 指導方針在最近的修訂中得到了升級(Duff, 2018),以改善輕度至中度癡呆患者的認知。此外,CS 在國家記憶服務認證計劃(MSNAP)的一項心理社會干預標準的三個標準中明確推薦(Hodge et al. 2016)。CS 是一種具有成本效益的心理社會干預,受到國家指導的推薦(Dickinson et al., 2017)。因此,不同的評估和綜合分析已評估 CS 對一般認知功能的影響(Aguirre et al., 2013; Cafferata et al. 2021; Kim et al., 2017; Lobbia et al., 2019; Saragih et al.)。
2022; Sun et al., 2022; Wong et al., 2021; Woods et al., 2012), and only two of them have evaluated the impact of CS on specific cognitive domains (Cafferata et al., 2021; Lobbia et al., 2019). Furthermore, all these studies included only dementia patients. 2022;Sun et al.,2022;Wong et al.,2021;Woods et al.,2012),而且只有兩項研究評估了 CS 對特定認知領域的影響(Cafferata et al.,2021;Lobbia et al.,2019)。此外,所有這些研究僅包括癡呆患者。
Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of CS (independently or together with pharmacological treatment, particularly acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs)) on cognitive outcomes, general cognitive functioning and specific cognitive domains (such as memory, attention, orientation, executive functions, language, verbal fluency, praxis, visuospatial abilities and calculation) in cognitively healthy elderly individuals, or with MCI, or dementia. 因此,本系統性回顧和統合分析旨在評估 CS(獨立或與藥物治療一起,特別是乙醯膽鹼酯酶抑制劑(AChEIs))對認知結果、一般認知功能和特定認知領域(如記憶、注意力、定向、執行功能、語言、語言流暢性、實踐能力、視空間能力和計算)在認知健康的老年人、輕度認知障礙(MCI)或癡呆患者中的影響。

2.3. Study selection and data extraction 2.3. 研究選擇與數據提取
Two authors (IG-S, EC) independently searched each database to obtain publications. Agreement between the authors was found for 90%90 \% of the publications while the remaining discrepancies were resolved by discussion. Relevant articles were obtained in full and assessed against the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Disagreements between the reviewers were resolved by consensus, when consensus could not be reached, arbitration by a third reviewer was applied (AA). 兩位作者(IG-S, EC)獨立搜尋每個資料庫以獲取出版物。作者之間對於 90%90 \% 篇出版物達成一致,而其餘的差異則通過討論解決。相關文章已完整獲取並根據納入和排除標準進行評估。審稿人之間的分歧通過共識解決,當無法達成共識時,則由第三位審稿人(AA)進行仲裁。
2.4. Quality assessment and publication bias 2.4. 質量評估與出版偏倚
Publication bias was examined by performing Egger’s Regression Test for Funnel Plot Asymmetry (Egger et al., 1997). Further confirmation was obtained through visual inspection of funnel plot symmetry, plotting the effect size in relation to the standard error. 發表偏倚是通過執行埃格爾回歸檢驗來檢查漏斗圖不對稱性(Egger et al., 1997)。進一步的確認是通過對漏斗圖對稱性的視覺檢查,將效應大小與標準誤差繪製在一起。
Funnel plots were created using JAMOVI (Jamovi, 2021) to investigate publication bias. Publication bias was assessed by the Egger linear regression test, following the guidelines provided by Peters et al., 2006. Thus, funnel plots were created and tests were carried out when the meta-analysis had more than 10 studies, as a small number of studies lowers the test power to a point where it is too low to distinguish chance from actual asymmetry (Sterne et al., 2011). Besides, trim and fill funnel plots according to Duval & Tweedie (Duval & Tweedie, 2000a, 2000b) were created using the R Ver. 3.5.1 program (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Institute for Statistics and Mathematics, Welthandelsplatz 1, 1020 Vienna, Austria) and the meta and metaphor packages (Supplementary file 81, Fig. 10). 漏斗圖是使用 JAMOVI(Jamovi, 2021)創建的,以調查出版偏倚。出版偏倚是通過埃格線性回歸測試進行評估的,遵循 Peters 等人於 2006 年提供的指導方針。因此,當元分析有超過 10 項研究時,創建了漏斗圖並進行了測試,因為研究數量少會降低測試的效能,至低到無法區分機會與實際不對稱(Sterne 等人,2011)。此外,根據 Duval & Tweedie(Duval & Tweedie, 2000a, 2000b)創建的修剪和填充漏斗圖是使用 R Ver. 3.5.1 程序(R 統計計算基金會,統計與數學研究所,Welthandelsplatz 1, 1020 維也納,奧地利)和 meta 及 metaphor 套件(補充文件 81,圖 10)。
Additionally, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute website (“Quality Assessment Tool for Controlled Intervention Studies, Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies and Pre-Post Studies With No Control Group. NIH National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Website. [Online].,” 2013) was used for the assessment of the quality of the studies included in the present systematic review and meta-analyses. 此外,國家心臟、肺部和血液研究所網站(“受控干預研究、觀察性隊列和橫斷面研究及無對照組的前後研究質量評估工具。NIH 國家心臟、肺部和血液研究所網站。[在線]。”,2013 年)被用於評估本系統性回顧和元分析中納入研究的質量。
2.5. Statistical analyses to conduct the meta-analyses 2.5. 進行統合分析的統計分析
All the studies included in the present meta-analysis and systematic review met the established inclusion criteria. However, when extracting the data, some information was missing. Although corresponding authors were contacted to collect the missing information to conduct the 本次元分析和系統評估中包含的所有研究均符合既定的納入標準。然而,在提取數據時,部分信息缺失。儘管已聯繫對應作者以收集缺失的信息以進行分析,
meta-analyses (Leroi et al., 2019; Lok et al., 2020; Marinho et al., 2021; Middelstadt et al., 2016, Oliveira et al., 2018; Vega Rozo et al., 2016) only two authors responded and gave us the required missing data (Leroi et al., 2019; Lok et al., 2020). meta 分析(Leroi et al., 2019; Lok et al., 2020; Marinho et al., 2021; Middelstadt et al., 2016, Oliveira et al., 2018; Vega Rozo et al., 2016)只有兩位作者回應並提供了我們所需的缺失數據(Leroi et al., 2019; Lok et al., 2020)。
The following subgroups were analyzed: (1) cognitive status (“cognitively healthy elderly or “MCI”; or “dementia”); (2) age (” <= 75\leq 75 years/ “>75 years”); (3) “computerized CS”; or “traditional CS”; (4) “personalized-adapted CS” or “non-personalized/non-adapted CS”; (5) “individual CS” or “group CS”; (6) “short-term” (duration of the CS is less than 3 months); “maintenance or medium-term” (duration of the CS is between 3 and 6 months); or “long-term” (duration of the CS is more than 12 months) (Aguirre et al., 2010); (7) 30min//30 \mathrm{~min} / session; < 45<45min//\mathrm{min} / session; or > 45min//session>45 \mathrm{~min} / \mathrm{session}; (8) subtype of control (active, passive or TAU); (9) “fair”; or “good” quality of studies; (10) “alone CS” or “CS + AChEIs”; (11) origin of the studies (“America”, “Asia”, or “Europe”); (12) “type of memory” (fixation memory, short-term, episodic memory, visuospatial memory, visual memory, or auditive memory); (13) type of orientation (temporal or spatial); (14) “type of verbal fluency” (semantic or phonemic); and (15) type of praxis (ideational or constructional) as long as the information was available. The gender of the participants could not be analyzed. 以下子群體進行了分析:(1)認知狀態(“認知健康的老年人”或“MCI”;或“癡呆”);(2)年齡(“ <= 75\leq 75 歲/ “>75 歲”);(3)“電腦化的 CS”;或“傳統的 CS”;(4)“個性化適應的 CS”或“非個性化/非適應的 CS”;(5)“個體 CS”或“團體 CS”;(6)“短期”(CS 的持續時間少於 3 個月);“維持或中期”(CS 的持續時間在 3 到 6 個月之間);或“長期”(CS 的持續時間超過 12 個月)(Aguirre et al., 2010);(7) 30min//30 \mathrm{~min} / 次會議; < 45<45min//\mathrm{min} / 次會議;或 > 45min//session>45 \mathrm{~min} / \mathrm{session} ;(8)控制類型(主動、被動或 TAU);(9)研究的“公平”;或“良好”質量;(10)“單獨 CS”或“CS + AChEIs”;(11)研究的來源(“美洲”、“亞洲”或“歐洲”);(12)“記憶類型”(固定記憶、短期、情節記憶、視空間記憶、視覺記憶或聽覺記憶);(13)方向類型(時間或空間);(14)“語言流利性類型”(語義或音韻);以及(15)實踐類型(意念性或建構性),只要信息可用。參與者的性別無法進行分析。
With the continuous variables “time of session”, “number of sessions (min)”, “total duration (weeks)” and “scores quality of studies (%”), heterogeneity was assessed through meta-regressions using the restricted maximum likelihood (REML), recommended as an estimator of heterogeneity to avoid bias (Tanriver-Ayder et al., 2021). 隨著連續變數「會議時間」、「會議次數(分鐘)」、「總持續時間(週)」和「研究質量得分(%)」,通過使用限制最大似然法(REML)進行元回歸來評估異質性,這被推薦作為評估異質性的估計量以避免偏差(Tanriver-Ayder et al., 2021)。
The standardized mean difference was chosen as the effect size metric to combine the results. When it was not directly provided by the authors, it was calculated from the mean, standard deviation, and sample size. When the Standard Deviation (SD) was not reported in the study, the authors were contacted. If no response was received, the following formula was applied: standard error =SD//sqrt()n=\mathrm{SD} / \sqrt{ } \mathrm{n}; SD=\mathrm{SD}= interquartile range //1.35/ 1.35. When the mean was not reported in the studies, the median was used. When possible, subgroup analyses were conducted. Several specific subgroup analyses were not performed because of a lack of studies (i.e., subgroups for which data could be obtained from only one study). 標準化平均差被選為效果大小指標以結合結果。當作者未直接提供時,則根據平均值、標準差和樣本大小進行計算。當研究中未報告標準差(SD)時,會聯繫作者。如果未收到回覆,則應用以下公式:標準誤差 =SD//sqrt()n=\mathrm{SD} / \sqrt{ } \mathrm{n} ; SD=\mathrm{SD}= 四分位距 //1.35/ 1.35 。當研究中未報告平均值時,則使用中位數。若有可能,進行了亞組分析。由於缺乏研究,幾個特定的亞組分析未能進行(即僅能從一項研究中獲得數據的亞組)。
Then, all results were pooled using the DerSimonian-Laird method in a random-effects meta-analysis (DerSimonian & Kacker, 2007) with the OpenMetaAnalyst software (Wallace et al., 2012). 然後,所有結果使用 DerSimonian-Laird 方法在隨機效應的統合分析中進行匯總(DerSimonian & Kacker, 2007),並使用 OpenMetaAnalyst 軟體(Wallace et al., 2012)。
In addition, heterogeneity across studies using the I^(2)\mathrm{I}^{2} statistic was estimated. Heterogeneity was considered as not important ( 0%-40%0 \%-40 \% ), moderate ( 30%-60%30 \%-60 \% ), substantial ( 50%-90%50 \%-90 \% ), or considerable ( 75%-75 \%-100%100 \% ) (Higgins & Thompson, 2002). Moreover, the corresponding p-values were also taken into account. 此外,使用 I^(2)\mathrm{I}^{2} 統計量的研究之間的異質性被估計。異質性被認為不重要 ( 0%-40%0 \%-40 \% )、中等 ( 30%-60%30 \%-60 \% )、顯著 ( 50%-90%50 \%-90 \% ) 或相當 ( 75%-75 \%-100%100 \% ) (Higgins & Thompson, 2002)。此外,相關的 p 值也被考慮在內。

3.1. Study selection 3.1. 研究選擇
The initial search provided a total of 2,108 records. The process used to detect duplicates was carried out through Microsoft Excel and the process was repeated twice, with a final manual revision. After removing duplicates and including studies identified through reference scanning, 1,997 potentially relevant studies were found, which were further filtered based on their title and abstract, remaining 64. After reading the full texts, 33 articles were finally included in the systematic review and the meta-analysis. The PRISMA diagram for the study selection is detailed in Fig. 1 and studies excluded by text complete (see Supplementary file 3 , Table S 3 ). 初步搜尋共提供了 2,108 條記錄。檢測重複的過程是通過 Microsoft Excel 進行的,並重複了兩次,最後進行了手動修訂。在刪除重複項並包括通過參考掃描識別的研究後,發現了 1,997 項潛在相關研究,這些研究根據其標題和摘要進一步篩選,剩下 64 項。在閱讀完整文本後,最終有 33 篇文章被納入系統評價和元分析。研究選擇的 PRISMA 圖詳見圖 1,文本完整性排除的研究見補充文件 3,表 S3。
