“…Timed Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (TIADL) [13,[34][35][36], The Everyday Problem Test (EPT) [13,35,37], The Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire (ADL) [31], the Chinese version of the Observed Task of Daily Living (OTDL-C) [38], and the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SOB) [32] are all commonly used in assessing cognitive function in older adults. The IADL scale [31,[39][40][41][42][43], ECB test [26,27], Barthel Index [42], OTDL tasks [37], Chula ADL index [44], EPCCE [25], and DAFS [25] were utilized. The most employed were the IADL scale and its timed version, the TIADL.…”

Subtle loss of functionality in healthy older adults is considered one of the most important predictors of cognitive decline. Neurocognitive interventions are increasingly being used, from a preventive maintenance approach to functional capacity. This study evaluates the effectiveness of different neurocognitive approaches on the functionality of healthy older adults. In this systematic review (CRD42023473944), an extensive search was conducted for articles published in the last 10 years (2013–2023) in the following databases: Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science. A total of 809 trials were identified, of which 18 were considered to be eligible for inclusion in the review. The data revealed heterogeneity in sample size, measures of functional assessment, neurocognitive interventions used, number of sessions, session duration, and time. Traditional cognitive stimulation is shown to have no significant functional benefit, while other less commonly used neurocognitive interventions, such as those based on everyday cognition, are associated with more significant benefits. Moreover, it is demonstrated that although the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living scale (IADL) is the most used test in similar studies, it is not sensitive enough to detect changes in functionality in healthy elderly individuals, with other tests such as the Timed Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (TIADL) being more advantageous. Therefore, a new guideline is proposed for its use in clinical practice and research, using homogeneous study protocols and neurocognitive interventions that allow for the transfer and generalization of results in daily life.

“…To conclude this section on functional outcomes, twelve studies show beneficial results for various neurocognitive interventions on functionality [13,[25][26][27]31,[34][35][36][37][38][39]41], while six studies find no significant differences [32,33,40,[42][43][44].…”

La estimulación cognitiva es una de las intervenciones no farmacológicas más utilizadas en poblaciones de adultos mayores. Muchos estudios que evalúan su eficacia presentan sesgos y debilidades metodológicas que conducen a la sobreestimación del efecto del tratamiento, dificultando la atribución concluyente de las mejoras observadas tras la intervención. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue realizar una revisión crítica de estudios recientes y escritos en lengua castellana, a través de un análisis comparativo en el que se aplicaron ocho indicadores de calidad. El proceso de búsqueda y cribado dio como resultado una selección de once estudios. Los resultados muestran que tan solo un 27.3% de la selección cumple con los ocho criterios evaluados. Al respecto, un 45.5% de los estudios no describen la intervención implementada, ni las características de las sesiones, y un 63.6% presenta un tamaño de muestra insuficiente como para garantizar efectos de tratamiento confiables. Aunque los potenciales beneficios de la estimulación cognitiva parecen ser evidentes, se debe priorizar el rigor y el compromiso en el desarrollo de la investigación, a fin de minimizar sesgos, reforzar la calidad metodológica, permitir la replicación, y responder satisfactoriamente a las demandas científicas actuales.
