简要总结

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Tai Chi and conventional exercise in alleviating depressive symptoms in older insomniacs.

详细描述

Chinese community-dwelling older adults with mild-to-moderate depressive symptoms and chronic insomnia will be recruited.

Eligible participants will be randomized to health education control, Tai Chi or conventional exercise interventions on a 1:1:1 basis after baseline assessment.

All interventions will last for 3 months. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months after the completion of the intervention.

主要结局

Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - Depression
