Abstract

Introduction: Alzheimer’s type dementia (AD) accounts for at least 60% of total dementia cases. Furthermore, in people over the age of 65 the incidence rate doubles, which highlights the urgent need to develop preventative measures or delay disease onset. Therefore, we carried out a study involving interventions that combined group-games and brain training among the elderly in the Kashihara-City. Additionally, in order to determine the relation between body composition and cognitive function, we carried out the measurements with an inner scan monitor.
