Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a planned interventional study comparing control, motor mental imagery, and action execution behavioral interventions for memory impairment in Alzheimer's disease patients. No results are available; the study is currently recruiting. Evidence quality cannot be assessed until the trial is completed and outcomes are reported.

As stated by the source record.
Quoted from the source exactly as published.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07632755). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 80 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Alzheimer s Disease, Healhty. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Control condition; BEHAVIORAL: Motor mental imagery; BEHAVIORAL: Action execution. Primary outcome measures: Free recall score , at 1 week. Brief summary: In France, over 1.5 million people suffer from mild cognitive impairment, often a precursor to Alzheimer's disease (AD), whose global prevalence could reach 153 million by 2050. With no curative treatment available, maintaining patients' autonomy at home is essential to mitigate the negative effects of institutionalization and reduce economic costs. Non-pharmacological approaches, such as cognitive training, have shown potential in stabilizing cognitive functions. Research suggests that motor networks and procedural memory remain relatively preserved in early AD, and bodily engagement during encoding enhances memory. For patients with motor impairments, motor imagery (MI) activates these networks without actual movement. Additionally, dynamic visual cues, like videos, reduce cognitive load compared to static images. This project aims to combine real action, MI, and dynamic visual supports to optimize memory. By validating 120 videos of daily activities, it will assess the impact of action on recall, evaluate MI's effectiveness for patients with mobility limitations, and confirm the superiority of videos over static images. The results could support the development of digital tools, such as serious games, to enhance patients' autonomy and address aging-related challenges.
