  • Description: The progressive aging of the global population continues unabated. Consequently, there is a substantial increase in the prevalence of neurocognitive disorders, primarily observed in the elderly.

These interventions exhibit varied effectiveness, with different types of CT and tES variants showing potential in enhancing specific cognitive functions. Additionally,...
