Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Public Health
  • Gerontology

Background:

  • Lifestyle modifications show potential for dementia risk reduction but lack routine implementation.
  • Memory clinic patients have high dementia risk and suboptimal health profiles.
  • A gap exists in services supporting lifestyle changes for this population.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the effectiveness of a personalized, multidomain lifestyle intervention in a memory clinic setting.
  • To improve lifestyle profiles and reduce dementia risk in older adults with subjective cognitive decline or mild cognitive impairment.

Main Methods:

  • The Lifestyle Intervention in the memory clinics of General and academic Hospitals Trial (LIGHT) is a 12-month multicenter randomized controlled trial.
  • 300 participants (≥50 years) with subjective cognitive decline or mild cognitive impairment and ≥2 risk factors will be randomized 1:1 to intervention or usual care.
  • The intervention includes lifestyle coaching, vouchers for brain-healthy activities, and online self-management tools.

Main Results:

  • The LIGHT trial will provide data on the implementability and cost-effectiveness of lifestyle interventions in memory clinics.
  • Recruitment began in early 2025 and is expected to conclude in 2027.

Conclusions:

  • The LIGHT study may offer evidence supporting personalized multidomain lifestyle interventions for dementia prevention.
  • Positive results could advocate for integrating lifestyle coaching into standard Dutch memory clinic services.
