topicB Complex Cognitive Performance Randomized Trial
claimBackground Recent evidence suggests that structured physical exercise (PE) may enhance electronic sports (esports) performance by targeting physiological and cognitive mechanisms similar to those known from traditional athletic training.

topicB Complex Cognitive Performance Randomized Trial
claimChronic PE interventions demonstrated mixed results: several studies reported gains in executive functions, overall coordination, and grip strength, whereas others found no significant effects on direct esports-related performance measures.

topicB Complex Cognitive Performance Randomized Trial
claimSignificant cognitive improvements on the Hong Kong-Montreal Cognitive Assessment were identified in naming (r=0.37; P=.05) and visual cognition (r=0.44; P=.02) in the intervention group, while no significant improvements were found in the control group.
