What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Computerized cognitive training (BrainHQ) and Tai Chi-Qi Gong
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a non-drug way to help people with early-onset Alzheimer's keep their memory and thinking skills longer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The training is time-consuming, and there is no guarantee it will improve symptoms.
