Numerous applications have been created to train cognition and challenge the brain, a process known as computerized cognitive training (CCT). Despite potential positive results, important questions remain unresolved: the appropriate training duration, the efficacy of CCT depending on its type (commercial or developed in-house for the rehabilitation of specific patients) and delivery mode (at-home or on-site), and the patients most likely to benefit such intervention. This study aims to perform an umbrella meta-analysis and meta-regression to determine if the type of CCT, the delivery mode, the amount of training, and participants' age at inclusion influence the improvement of the cognitive function. To do so, we performed a umbrella meta-analysis. One hundred studies were included in this analysis representing 6407 participants. Statistical improvements were found for the different conditions after the training. We do not find statistical difference between the type of intervention or the delivery mode. No dose-response relationship between the total amount of training and the improvement of cognitive functions was found. CCT is effective in improving cognitive function in patients suffering from neurological conditions and in healthy aging. There is therefore an urgent need for health care systems to recognize its therapeutic potential and to evaluate at a larger scale their integration into the clinical pipeline as preventive and rehabilitation tool. |
