Effect of combined and intensive rehabilitation on cognitive function in patients with Alzheimer's disease evaluated through a randomized controlled trial.

This study investigates the impact of combined special education and occupational therapy intervention on cognitive functions in Alzheimer's patients. Specifically, it evaluates changes measured by the Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination (ACE-R) after six months compared to a control group receiving standard care. A longitudinal, controlled experiment was conducted with random assignment to experimental and control groups.
