Member Benefit

ACLM and the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine (AJLM) are pleased to offer CME/CE for one (1) journal article in each of the six (6) bi-monthly AJLM issues starting in 2022. Articles will also offer ABLM MOC for those certified in lifestyle medicine. ACLM members can earn FREE CME/CE credit by reading the CME/CE article and successfully completing the online CME/CE activity.

PLEASE NOTE: While these opportunities provide CME/CE and MOC to fulfill the 5 year maintenance of certification 30 hour MOC requirement for the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine, this offering is separate from and does not replace the required 3 annual articles and assessments on the LMMOC platform.

July  | The Role of Physical Exercise in Cognitive Preservation: A Systematic Review

  • Dementia, or major neurocognitive disorder, is one of the most common causes of disability and dependency in older adults with far-reaching social, physical, and economic impacts. In the absence of adequate treatment, much research has been directed towards prevention. Physical exercise has been shown to increase cerebral blood flow, amplify production of neurotrophic factors, and enhance brain volume. Whether these changes on a structural and cellular level result in cognitive preservation is less clear. This systematic review synthesizes findings from seventeen randomized controlled trials that examine the effects of physical activity on global cognition, memory, and executive function in older adults. Cognitive benefits of exercise are strongest for those who are cognitively intact or with mild cognitive impairment. In studies with long-term follow up, cognitive gains tended to decay after cessation of physical intervention suggesting that sustained physical exercise may be required to preserve cognitive function in older adults prior to onset of dementia.
