The effect of the multi-exercise program on cognitive function in overweight and non-overweight elderlyBackground: Cognitive function is the factor that determines the disability of the elderly to live a healthy and independent life. The results of studies regarding the protective effect or detrimental effects of overweight or obesity on cognitive function in the elderly are still controversial. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of the multi-exercise program on cognitive function in the elderly based on nutritional status.Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-postest design study involved 37 elderly aged 60-74 years. Body mass index (BMI) derived from the measurement of body weight and height were grouped into overweight and not-overweight. Both groups received a multi-exercise in the form of gymnastic exercise (30 minutes), square stepping exercise (30 minutes), and puzzle games (30 minutes). The intervention was given 12 times with a frequency of 3 times per week. Cognitive function was measured by using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) questionnaire. Data analysis used paired sample t-test and independent t-test. Results: The multi-exercise program intervention given affected improving cognitive function in the overweight elderly group (p=0.003). However, it is different from the non-overweight elderly group who did not show a significant effect of the multi-exercise program on the cognitive function (p=0.184) even though there was an increase in the mean cognitive function at the end of the intervention. Conclusions: Multi-exercise program intervention for 4 weeks with a frequency of three times per week can improve the cognitive function of the elderly, but statistically only significant in the overweight elderly group.

State Examination

In the elderly population, at least 10% of those over 65 years old and 50% of those over 80 years old experience a decline in cognitive function that varies from a cognitive decline due to normal aging (age-associated memory impairment/AAMI) to a mild cognitive decline (mild cognitive impairment/MCI) and dementia. Dementia is an intellectual disorder that affects the cognitive function, memory, language function, and visuospatial function that causes irreversible changes. Many studies have stated that lifestyle management in the form of increased physical activity has a protective effect on impaired cognitive functions, inhibits cognitive function decline, and even improves cognitive function in healthy elderly people and elderly with mild cognitive impairment to dementia. Low impact aerobic exercise is a physical activity that is useful and suitable for the elderly. This study aimed to determine the effect of low impact aerobic exercise on the cognitive function of elderly people with dementia. This was a quasi-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest method that involved elderly people from Tresna Werdha Teratai Palembang, South Sumatera, Indonesia who were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria (n=38) from December 2018 to February 2019. Treatment provided was a low impact aerobic exercise 3 times a week for 5 weeks. Dementia was then measured before and after treatment using the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE). The mean values of gymnastics before the treatment and after the treatment were 18.36±4.559 and 19.69±5.724, respectively. A p value of 0.000 was obtained using the Wilcoxon test. In summary, low impact aerobic exercise influences the cognitive function of the elderly with dementia. PENGARUH SENAM AEROBIK LOW IMPACT TERHADAP FUNGSI KOGNITIF USILA DENGAN DEMENSIAPada usia lanjut (usila), sedikitnya 10% dari yang berusia lebih dari 65 tahun dan 50% dari yang berusia lebih dari 80 tahun mengalami penurunan fungsi kognitif yang bervariasi mulai dari penurunan kognitif karena penuaan normal (age-associate memory impairment/AAMI) serta penurunan kognitif ringan (mild cognitive impairment/MCI) hingga demensia. Demensia adalah gangguan intelektual yang meliputi fungsi kognitif, daya ingat, bahasa, fungsi visuospasial, dan bersifat ireversibel. Banyak studi menyatakan bahwa manajemen gaya hidup berupa peningkatan aktivitas fisik mempunyai efek protektif terhadap gangguan fungsi kognitif, menghambat penurunan fungsi kognitif, serta bahkan meningkatkan fungsi kognitif pada usila yang sehat dan usila dengan penurunan fungsi kognitif ringan sampai demensia. Senam aerobik low impact merupakan aktifitas fisik yang bermanfaat dan cocok diberikan kepada usila. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh senam aerobik low impact terhadap fungsi kognitif usila dengan demensia. Penelitian ini merupakan studi quasi-experimental dengan metode pretest-posttest one group yang melibatkan usila dari Tresna Werdha Teratai Palembang, Sumatera Selatan, Indonesia yang dipilih berdasar atas kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi (n=38) dari bulan Desember 2018 hingga Februari 2019. Perlakuan yang diberikan berupa senam aerobik low impact 3 kali per minggu selama 5 minggu. Demensia kemudian diukur sebelum dan sesudah perlakuan menggunakan Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE). Nilai rerata senam sebelum perlakuan dan setelah perlakuan adalah 18,36±4,559 dan 19,69±5,724 masing-masing. Nilai p=0,000 didapatkan dengan menggunakan Uji Wilcoxon. Simpulan, senam aerobik low impact memengaruhi fungsi kognitif usila dengan demensia.

Abstract This study investigated the relationship between olfaction and cognitive function in 12 elderly people (age: 80.9 ± 1.6) living in the community. Olfactory function was assessed by the identification threshold for rose odor. Four cognitive measures consisting general cognitive ability assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), its sub-domains, and attentional ability assessed by drawing a line to connect the numbers consecutively (trail-making test part A; TMT-A), were assessed. Subjects with a higher olfactory threshold (≥ 5) declined more in the performance speed of TMT-A (73% ± 7%, p = 0.05) compared with those subjects with a lower threshold (≤ 4) (averaged value was set at 100%). Other cognitive statuses assessed by MMSE tended to decline in subjects with higher thresholds. Because attentional function relates to the basal forebrain cholinergic system, our results suggest that olfactory impairment links to the decline in cognitive function, particularly of attention-relating cholinergic function.

The increasing number of the elderly causes complex problems for the elderly, families and communities. Physiological and psychological changes make the elderly feel useless, experience decreased motivation and independence. One of the efforts to increase the independence of the elderly in order to remain qualified is the application of therapeutic modalities in the form of occupational therapy and group psychotherapy. This study aims to determine the changes in the independence of the elderly before and after Ocupasi therapy and Group Psychotherapy at PSTW Sabai Nan Aluih Sic Cincin, Padang Pariaman Regency. The study used a quantitative approach with "Quasi Experimental pre and post test with control group which was held from March to November 2019. The study sample was 63 elderly people who were taken by purposive sampling." The research instrument used the Katz AD Index. Data analysis used Paired sample t-test and Independent t test. The increase in the average independence of the dementia elderly was greater in the elderly who were given Ocupasi therapy and Group Psychotherapy by 18.83 compared to those who received Ocupasi therapy of 7,121. Conclusion The elderly who received occupational therapy and group psychotherapy experienced an increase in independence compared to the elderly who only received occupational therapy. It is recommended that nursing home nurses receive occupational therapy training modified with group psychotherapy and that the training module needs to be improved.

Klampis Ngasem is one of the areas in East Surabaya, precisely in Sukolilo sub-district, Surabaya. The target group in the community partnership program (PKM) is the Elderly Posyandu "Barokah" in RW 3. Problems that occur in the Elderly Barokah Posyandu are less varied activities and innovation so that some elderly are less interested and bored to follow routinely as indicated by the presence of the elderly < 75%, the absence of efforts to prevent dementia that is carried out regularly and continue for the elderly, lack of elderly knowledge about changes in cognitive function and efforts to maintain cognitive function so as to prevent dementia, and the availability of leisure time for the elderly in addition to routine posyandu activities and those that have not been utilized to be useful and productive. The solution to overcome these problems is through the application of Art Therapy to make colet batik. The purpose of this community service is to help express themselves, maintain the cognitive function of the elderly and provide new skills in making batik as an activity in the Posyandu Elder Barokah Klampis Ngasem Village. The activities carried out are screening to see the cognitive function of the elderly using Mini mental state examination (MMSE) and clock drawing test (CDT), counseling about prevention of dementia which includes knowing dementia, prevention of dementia, and art therapy, batik colet training with demonstration methods, and simulation. The results of batik colet will be processed again with the help of cadres or the elderly who have sewing skills to be used as sofa pillowcases. From this process, a work or product will be produced from the batik colet method.

Study Inclusion

Background: Studies have shown a sex difference in the cognitive dysfunction in the elderly where women are more susceptible to Alzheimer’s disease than men. Physical activity (PA) is an important strategy for brain health, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Santos has the largest proportion of the elderly population in São Paulo State (22%), but no studies have whether there are differences between the sexes in cognitive function. Objective: To evaluate the differences between the sexes in the cognitive function of the elderly and which factors are associated with this difference. Methods: Ninety-seven women and sixty-nine men were eligible for the study. Inclusion criteria were >65 years old, no severe cognitive impairment, preserved activities of daily living. Cognitive function and PA were assessed by the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Baecke questionnaire. Results: The mean age was 75±7 and 73±7, for women and men, respectively. Both sexes showed a similar MMSE score (26, varying between 14 and 30) that was inversely associated with age. The influence of the schooling status on MMSE was greater in women (r=0.49, p=0.0001) compared to men (r= 0.30, p9. Conclusions: The MMSE score is affected by the aging process similarly between the sexes. The years of schooling have an influence on cognitive function in women that is attenuated by higher PA.

Introduction: Older adults experience a change in their nervous system that influences cognitive function, including the abilities of orientation, registration, attention-calculation, memory and language. These changes affect the independence of the elderly when carrying out their daily activities. The purpose of this research was to analyze the effect of cognitive stimulation group activity memory game therapy on elderly cognitive function.Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental pre-post approach with a control group design. The population in this study was the elderly who were aged >60 in Nursing Home Blitar, totaling 20 older patients. The data retrieval for this research was conducted between April and May 2012. The elderly in the treatment group were given flash card stimulus to practice their perceptual abilities 8 times (1 month). The measurement of elderly cognitive function used the Mini Mental State Examination questionnaire. The data was analyzed using the Wilcoxon Sign Rank test.Results: The results showed that elderly cognitive function increased from 10,3 (pre test) to 14,65 (post test) with p=0,005 (p<0,05). This result shows that cognitive stimulation group activity memory games have a significance influence on elderly cognitive function.Conclusion: Practical nurses can use this therapy to improve elderly cognitive function not only in Elderly Social Institutions but also in the community or through public health.

When a person reaches the elderly phase, the function of the body's organs decreases, which causes an increased risk of disease and death. Including dental infections such as caries and periodontal disease which are the main factors for tooth loss. Tooth loss does not only affect the impact of mastication but also affects a person's cognitive function. This condition occurs because when a person loses teeth, the function of the Periodontal Mechanoreceptors decreases, disrupting the function of the hippocampus which is important for memory in the brain. Loss of a large number of teeth tends to indicate low cognitive function, but several factors affect cognitive function, namely education level, Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, heart disease, depression, sleep disorders, head injury, physical activity, and a history of smoking. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a tool to assess a person's cognitive function. This study aims to see the description of cognitive function in the elderly at the Geunaseh Sayang Nursing Home with variations in the number of tooth losses. This study was conducted with 43 research subjects with interviews and intra-oral examination methods. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the elderly who only have fewer teeth show a higher decline in cognitive function compared to the elderly with more teeth in the oral cavity. This is following the theory which states that the more teeth you lose, the lower your cognitive function will be.
