Computerised cognitive training in Parkinson's disease: A protocol for a systematic review and updated meta-analysis

Abstract

Introduction Cognitive impairment is recognised as an important non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD) and there is a need for evidence-based non-pharmacological interventions that may prevent or slow cognitive decline in this patient group.
