An Integrated Intervention of Computerized Cognitive Training and Physical Exercise in Virtual Reality for People With Alzheimer's Disease (JDome)

JDOME study is designed as a randomized controlled trial to test the effectiveness of a training that combines the JDome virtual reality system for aerobic exercise with computerized cognitive training via tablet. The Experimental Group (EG) will receive computerized cognitive training with the Brainer web platform and aerobic training with the JDOME system (a tool that combines an exercise bike, a dome-shaped projector and Google Street View technology).The Control Group (CG) will receive computerized cognitive training with the Brainer web platform and aerobic training with a standard exercise bike. Assessment will be performed at the baseline (T0), at the end of intervention (after eight weeks -T1) and 12 weeks after the end of intervention (follow-up T2). The primary aim is to assess the stabilization of the global cognition of people with mild-stage Alzheimer's disease at the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and at the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog); The secondary aim is the analyses of the modification of the quality of life, mood, behavioral disturbances, and physical function in people with mild-stage Alzheimer's disease.
