“…In terms of immediate effects of different exercise modes, initial studies report a mediating effect of exercise mode on event related potentials (P300 amplitude) during task switching [20] and inhibitory control [17] in older adults. In these studies, open skill exercisers exhibited better neural efficiency relative to both closed skill exercisers and a control group.…”

One bout of open skill exercise improves cross-modal perception and immediate memory in healthy older adults who habitually exercise

One single bout of exercise can be associated with positive effects on cognition, due to physiological changes associated with muscular activity, increased arousal, and training of cognitive skills during exercise. While the positive effects of life-long physical activity on cognitive ageing are well demonstrated, it is not well established whether one bout of exercise is sufficient to register such benefits in older adults. The aim of this study was to test the effect of one bout of exercise on two cognitive processes essential to daily life and known to decline with ageing: audio-visual perception and immediate memory. Fifty-eight older adults took part in a quasi-experimental design study and were divided into three groups based on their habitual activity (open skill exercise (mean age = 69.65, SD = 5.64), closed skill exercise, N = 18, 94% female; sedentary activity-control group, N = 21, 62% female). They were then tested before and after their activity (duration between 60 and 80 minutes). Results showed improvement in sensitivity in audio-visual perception in the open skill group and improvements in one of the measures of immediate memory in both exercise groups, after controlling for baseline differences including global cognition and health. These findings indicate that immediate benefits for cross-modal perception and memory can be obtained after open skill exercise. However, improvements after closed skill exercise may be limited to memory benefits. Perceptual benefits are likely to be associated with arousal, while memory benefits may be due to the training effects provided by task requirements during exercise. The respective role of qualitative and quantitative differences between these activities in terms of immediate cognitive benefits should be further investigated. Importantly, the present results present the first evidence for a modulation of cross-modal perception by exercise, providing a plausible avenue for rehabilitation of cross-modal perception deficits, which are emerging as a significant contributor to functional decline in ageing.

“…After the full text of these was read, 17 were excluded for the following reasons: (i) did not include elderly people ( n = 9); (ii) did not analyze PA ( n = 3); did not assess P300 ( n = 3); (iv) was a congress summary ( n = 1); and (v) was in Japanese ( n = 1). Therefore, 14 investigations were finally selected; nine aimed at analyzing the influence of PA on P300 in the elderly, and five examined the effects of physical exercise on P300 in the elderly (Fig. ) …”

“…In five studies, patients self‐reported the amount of PA they completed. Four of these five studies administered validated PA questionnaires, and one used PA practice records . Only one study did not take into account the sample’s level of activity; it classified the participants according to the type of physical exercise performed (open and closed kinetic chain exercises) .…”

Only one study did not take into account the sample’s level of activity; it classified the participants according to the type of physical exercise performed (open and closed kinetic chain exercises) . All studies used a visual oddball paradigm to obtain the P300 component, with the exception of Getzmann et al and Hatta et al , which used an auditory and a somatosensory paradigm, respectively.…”

“…Studies have shown a latency increase and a P300 amplitude decrease in healthy senior citizens compared to young individuals, and these differences were even greater when healthy senior citizens were compared with individuals with dementia . For that reason, P300 is considered to be a biological marker of cognitive impairment that can be used to indicate the presence of a cognitive alteration, and its components can be positively stimulated through PA, especially in the elderly . However, to the best of our knowledge, evidence of this has not been reviewed.…”

Effects of physical activity on the P300 component in elderly people: a systematic review

et al. 2017

The effects of physical activity on brain function can be assessed through event-related potentials (P300) that reflect cortical activities related to cognitive functions. P300 latency represents the information processing time; longer latencies represent slower processing. P300 amplitude is associated with the attentional system and working memory, with higher amplitudes representing more preserved functions. This systematic review summarizes the literature concerning the effects of physical activity and exercise on P300 in the elderly. Databases, including Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, MEDLINE/PubMed, and Biological Abstracts, were searched for articles up to November 2015. Articles were considered for inclusion if they were studies of the elderly, assessed P300, and evaluated the influence of physical activity on P300 or the effect of physical exercise training on P300. Of the 1227 articles found, 14 investigations matched the inclusion criteria. Nine analyzed the influence of physical activity on P300 in the elderly, and five examined the effects of physical exercise on P300 in the elderly. The obtained results showed that physically active elderly people have shortened P300 latency and higher amplitude. Physical exercise, especially those involving aerobic or resistance training, seems to have marked beneficial effects on P300 in the elderly. Evidence shows that physical activity and physical exercise positively influence cortical activities related to cognitive functions, as indicated by P300, in elderly people.
