Many studies have reported the effectiveness of cognitive training in improving cognitive functions, and brain training games are now widely used in Japan. In recent years, e-sports (competitive computer games) has been focused on as a new long-term care prevention program. However, these efforts have been limited to comparison of before and after groups of interventions, and no previous studies have been reported in the scientific literature. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to conduct an intervention program combining e-sports, exercise, and nutrition for community-dwelling older adults, and to examine the effects of the program on improving the physical and cognitive functions of the older adults.

This will enable the proposal of new activities to those who have not been interested in exercise-centered social group activity and encourage them to participate. E-sports can be used as an entrance for the older adults to promote their health and wellness.
Changes in cognitive function before and 12 weeks after the start of the intervention program. Specific measures included general cognitive function (Mini-Mental State Examination-Japanese: MMSE-J, Japanese version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment: MoCA-J), attention and executive function (Trail Making-Test (TMT), visual memory range, number counting, and Tower of Hanoi.
Changes in daily living behavior and living conditions before and 12 weeks after the start of the intervention program. Daily living behavior will be measured by having the participants wear a wearable device on the opposite wrist of their dominant hand for one week, and physical activity, sedentary time, and sleep duration will be measured. The living conditions and diet survey will be measured in terms of meal frequency, sleep status, social interaction, and lifestyle awareness.

Participants in the intervention group will be asked to gather at the venue once a week for a 90-minute program (12 sessions in total). The program will consist of 60 minutes of e-sports (competition among participants using rhythm and puzzle games), 15 minutes of warm-up exercises (exercises and light strength training), and 15 minutes of a health lecture (nutrition and oral health lecture).
The control group will be asked to wait for the intervention group during the period of the program (12 weeks). After the post-intervention measurements and surveys are completed, the e-sports and the health lecture programs will be conducted twice.
