Trial summary

With aging, brain aging leads to a general decline in cognitive ability, and the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) increases. The prevalence of abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism also increased with age. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cohort Study on the Associations of Endocrine Glucose & Lipids With Brain Aging-related Conditions in Chinese Men and Women

With aging, brain aging leads to a general decline in cognitive ability, and the prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) increases. The prevalence of abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism also increased with age. The imbalance of glucose and lipid metabolism is closely related to brain aging related conditions and diseases, and the relationship between glucose and lipid metabolism and brain aging has not been fully elucidated.

Phase 1: Baseline investigation (community-based survey) Aims: To investigate whether glucose and lipids are the risk factors for brain aging-related conditions, such as mild cognitive impairment.

Subjects and Methods: A community-based survey will be carried out in 10000 natural population aged >=50 years selected from 10-12 communities stratified according to geographic regions (Ciyao, Huafeng, Dongzhuang, Heshan, Geshi, Jiangji, Gangcheng, Fushan, Dongshu, Sidian, Baxianqiao, and Xiangyin, etc) in Ningyang County, Taian City, Shandong Province. A comprehensive examination including questionnaire (including the MMSE and ADL evaluation for the participants), anthropometric measurements, biochemical analysis will be performed in each study participant. In particular, the investigators randomly selected 1000-2000 participants performing MRI of the brain to evaluate the brain aging related conditions.

Phase 2: Cohort follow-up Aims : To examine glucose and lipids metabolism levels and their changes that modify the risk of brain aging-related conditions.

Subjects and Methods: To recruit and follow all 10000 participants for at least 3-5 years. In particular, all 1000-2000 participants with the baseline MRI examination will perform the MRI examination again for the follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Brain Aging Related Conditions, run by Shandong Provincial Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Ling Gao (+8613793187189, gaoling1@medmail.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

number of participants who develop brain aging-related conditions during follow-up (time frame: 5 years). 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 6 Oct 2023.
