The authors report the effect of a 12-day prospective, blinded dance-learning trial in 5 patients with moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 5 age-matched depressed patients. Patients with AD showed a significant effect in procedural learning whereas depressed patients did not. These findings suggest potential implications for therapeutic interventions in patients with moderate AD.
作者报告了一项针对5名中度阿尔茨海默病(AD)患者和5名年龄匹配的抑郁症患者进行的为期12天的前瞻性、盲法舞蹈学习试验的效果。AD患者在程序学习方面显示出显著效果,而抑郁症患者则没有。这些发现提示了对中度AD患者进行治疗干预的潜在意义。
