简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a culturally-adapted intervention can improve cardiovascular health in American Indian women.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Can this intervention realistically work for American Indian women?
- Do American Indian women find the intervention acceptable?
- Does the intervention help improve cardiovascular health in American Indian women? Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group (a group that does not receive the intervention) to see whether the cardiovascular health of the intervention group improves.
Participants will:
- Attend 3 data collections over 3 months.
- Be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or a control group.
- (Intervention group participants) attend 8 weekly classes.
详细描述

- inflammatory markers
- metabolic function
Secondary outcomes:
