简要总结
The study aims to evaluate the effects of a 9-month intervention combining yoga-based mindfulness techniques, cognitive training, and nutritional counseling on cognitive function, plasma markers of neurodegeneration (tau protein), physical fitness, and metabolism in older adults at increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.
详细描述
This randomized two-arm clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of a 9-month intervention combining yoga-based mindfulness techniques and time-restricted eating (Arm 1) versus cognitive training and stretching (Arm 2) in older adults at increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. The study will assess outcomes including cognitive function, plasma biomarkers of neurodegeneration (tau protein), physical fitness, and metabolic health.
The trial is harmonized with the concurrently running LIBRA-NET study (NCT06986096) conducted at Slovak sites (Bratislava and Banská Bystrica). Data from the cognitive training arm and additional clinical parameters will be pooled across both studies for joint statistical analyses. The studies share primary and several secondary outcomes, a shared intervention timeline, assessment protocols, and the cognitive training/stretching arm. The harmonization across all four study sites aims to increase statistical power and enable more generalizable conclusions for a larger population.

结局指标
主要结局
Composite Score of Cognitive Function
时间窗: Baseline and 9 months
Change in composite neuropsychological score from baseline to post-intervention (9 months), including domain-specific scores for memory, executive function/attention, and psychomotor speed.
Plasma Biomarkers of Neurodegeneration
时间窗: Baseline and 9 months
Change in concentrations of plasma biomarkers: phosphorylated tau (pTau217, pTau181), GFAP, and neurofilament light chain (NfL).
次要结局
- Computerized Cognitive Test Scores - Cogstate(Baseline and 9 months)
- Geriatric depression scale(Baseline and 9 months)
- Adherence to Intervention(Throughout the 9-month intervention)
- Beck's anxiety inventory(Baseline and 9 months)
- Older People's Quality of Life Questionnaire scores(Time Frame: Baseline and 9 months)
