A Bayesian Network Meta-analysis of the Effect of Acute Exercise on Executive Function in Middle-aged and Senior People

Abstract

Review question / Objective: Objective: To compare the intervention effect of multiple acute movement formulas on the executive function in middle-aged and senior people and to provide references for the discussion of the plans for precise movements. P: middle-aged and senior people elderly people; I: acute exercise; C: reading or sitting; O: Executive Function; S: RCT/crossover. Information sources: Randomized searches were carried out in Chinese databases such as CNKI, Wanfang Database, VTTMS, SinoMed and foreign databases such as PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science. The retrieval period is from the beginning of each database to August 2021, supplemented with manual searches for gray literature and references traced back to previous systematic reviews.

The impact of exercise on executive function in overweight and obese children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis

“…[48] In terms of single session duration, the duration of 40 min exercise was more effective. Some studies have shown that exercise duration may be an important moderator of the intervention effects of exercise on executive function [49] The effects of prolonged exercise on cognitive bene ts are largely negligible and may even be detrimental if the duration is too long or too short. These ideas are further supported by the self-control theory.…”
