This study investigated the efficacy of the Silvia program, a mobile-based multidomain intervention, to improve cognitive function and health-related outcomes of older adults with a high risk of dementia. We compare its effects to a conventional paper-based multidomain program on various health indicators related to risk factors of dementia.
