      abstract     = {BackgroundIn Parkinson's Disease (PD), cognitive
                      dysfunctions which can reduce patients' quality of life
                      occur frequently. Data on non-pharmacological intervention
                      effects on cognitive functions in patients with PD are rare.
                      The aim of this study was to examine the effects of
                      different cognitive group trainings (structured vs.
                      unstructured) on cognition, depression, and quality of life
                      in non-demented PD patients.MethodsIn this randomized
                      controlled trial, 65 non-demented patients with PD according
                      to UK Brain Bank criteria (Hoehn $\&$ Yahr I-III) were
                      allocated to one of two cognitive multi-component treatments
                      (“NEUROvitalis”, a structured training, or the
                      unstructured training “Mentally fit” with randomly
                      assembled cognitive tasks, each including 12 group-sessions
                      à 90 min over 6 weeks) or a waiting list control group
                      (CG). A neuropsychological test battery was performed before
                      and after the training.ResultsCompared to the CG, patients
                      from the “NEUROvitalis” group improved in short-term
                      memory (word list learning “Memo”: p < .01) and working
                      memory (digit span reverse from “DemTect”: p < .05),
                      whereas depression scores where reduced in the “Mentally
                      fit” group (Beck Depression Inventory-II: p < .05). The
                      “NEUROvitalis” group improved significantly more in
                      working memory than the “Mentally fit” group (DemTect: p
                      < .05).DiscussionCognitive and affective functions can be
                      improved by cognitive trainings in PD patients. Specific
                      effects (e.g. on memory and working memory versus
                      depression) seem to be dependent on the type of training.
                      Further research is needed to define long-term effects and
                      the efficacy in PD patients with different extent of
                      cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms.},
