Skill learning in patients with moderate Alzheimer's disease: a prospective pilot-study of waltz-lessons.

Full Abstract

The authors report the effect of a 12-day prospective, blinded dance-learning trial in 5 patients with moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 5 age-matched depressed patients. Patients with AD showed a significant effect in procedural learning whereas depressed patients did not. These findings suggest potential implications for therapeutic interventions in patients with moderate AD.Copyright 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
