Profiles of 24‐hour Activity Cycle in Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment: Does it Matter for Cognition?

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is associated with increased risk for dementia and is characterized by poorer cognitive performance. Physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep constitute the 24‐hour activity cycle (24‐HAC). Each of these share an inter‐dependent relationship with each other and are associated with cognitive health in older adults. It is unclear whether differences in the 24‐HAC profiles in older adults with MCI are associated with cognitive performance. Therefore, we examined whether older adults with MCI showed differences in cognitive performance based on profiles of 24‐HAC.
