Active substance: Empowerment Network for Auditory-Cognitive Training (ENACT) Program
What this could lead to: If it works, this program could offer a practical, non-drug way to help people with mild memory and hearing problems stay sharper and communicate better.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study with only 62 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program is complex and requires a smartphone and caregiver support, which may limit its use.
