cognikey - 50歳から始める認知症予防、リスク診断

In this trial version, the language processing ability can be measured and the brain health can be estimated from the diary data created by the user.

Preventive training content will be added in future updates.

■Research and Development

This app was developed based on the results of research conducted with Kyoto University's School of Medicine.

Through research into the relationship between writing kanji and sentences and dementia, it has been found that writing kanji inhibits the progression of dementia.

Our research is inspired by a group of previous studies overseas that focus on the relationship between semantic density, grammatical complexity, and dementia, called "Nan Study," and aims to become a basic study for the Japanese version.

■Main functions

・Diary creation

　A designable diary and image import function are implemented to realize a diary life unique to the user.

　The handwritten diary import function allows you to view and edit previous diaries within the app.

・Dementia risk diagnosis

　From the created diary, the semantic density, which represents the user's language processing ability, and the grammatical complexity related to short-term memory are analyzed to diagnose the risk of dementia.

・Diary writing support by AI assistant

The assistant accompanies the user in their diary life and provides advice to improve language processing ability.

The assistant teaches the user useful information on dementia prevention and how to use the app.

■Effects of the app

The decline in cognitive function of the brain begins in the 40s. It is said that prevention and fundamental treatment are difficult once dementia progresses.

Writing characters and creating sentences prevents cognitive decline.

We believe that keeping the brain healthy and youthful can expand the possibilities of the user's second life.

■Recommended for

・People who want to prevent dementia

・People who feel that their memory is declining

・People who are beginning to feel a decline in concentration and thinking ability due to aging

・People who want to enjoy writing a diary
