NCT ID NCT07634055
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether changes in movement, like how fast you can tap your fingers, can help detect early signs of dementia. Researchers will study 200 people, some with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and some healthy, using a special glove to measure finger movements. The goal is to find simple movement tests that could spot dementia risk early.
