recently conducted a systematic review to assess the effects of physical exercise
on cortical activity modulation in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
The review includes 5 randomized controlled trials and 2 nonrandomized controlled
trials. We have many comments on some procedures and findings in this review.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment

- PreviewWe thank the authors for their letter to the editor related to our recent article.1 The authors expressed 4 main concerns related to our systematic review. The first is related to the absence of specification in relation to the etiology of mild cognitive impairment (MCI).2 We decided to not specify MCI etiology because (1) there are only a few studies in this area; therefore, any additional restriction could have reduced the number of included studies (n=7); and (2) the main aim of our systematic review was to provide a synthesis of the current literature investigating the effects of physical exercise on cortical activity measured via electroencephalogram in individuals with MCI, not on the MCI cause.
