Effect of Tai Chi and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Spontaneous Neural Activity in Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment: An Exploratory Resting-State fMRI Study
Key Points
The central aim is to explore how Tai Chi and transcranial direct current stimulation affect spontaneous neural activity in individuals with mild cognitive impairment.
Conducted an exploratory resting-state fMRI study
Included participants diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment
Applied Tai Chi and transcranial direct current stimulation interventions
Measured changes in spontaneous neural activity
Demonstrated changes in neural activity patterns following interventions
Indicated potential benefits for cognitive function in mild cognitive impairment
