Effects of Combined Physical and Cognitive Interventions on Older Adults With Dementia: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Physical and cognitive interventions provide benefits to persons with dementia (PwD); however, the evidence on the effects of combined physical and cognitive interventions on PwD remains inconsistent. This review aimed to synthesize existing evidence and compare the effects of combined interventions with those of each intervention alone on cognitive, physical, psychological, functional, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes for PwD.
