About this study

Official title: Relationship Between Exercise, Physical Activity Levels, Sleep Quality and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults.

The rapid increase in the prevalence of dementia in Taiwan poses an economic burden on healthcare systems as well as the families of the patients. Thus, how to prevent dementia is a crucial issue. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is defined as cognitive decline objectively and subjectively and it has been deemed as a transitional state between normal cognition and dementia. Identifying and preventing MCI can be a venue for reducing the prevalence of dementia. Sleep and physical activity are modifiable risk factors of MCI. Both factors could influence brain structure, such as the volume of the hippocampus. As a result, physical activity and adequate sleep are helpful to prevent the decline of cognitive function. In addition, sleep could regulate physical activity and change cognitive function indirectly. To our knowledge, there has been no research investigating the relationship between sleep, physical activity, and cognitive function in Taiwan. Hence, this research will aim to explore the relationship between sleep, physical activity, and cognitive function. Whether sleep and physical activity can be predictors of MCI will be investigated. We will recruit 150 participants aged above 65, who haven't been diagnosed with MCI or dementia. The measurements will include the Chinese version of The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Chinese Version of the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE-C), and the Chinese version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The relationship between sleep, physical activity level, and cognitive function will be analyzed by multiple linear regression and Pearson correlations. A prediction equation will be established.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cognitive Function, run by National Changhua University of Education at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yu-Hsuan Lee (+886975690234, xuanyolee@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cognitive function (time frame: at the time the participants enroll). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Apr 2023.
