简要总结
This is a randomized, 26-week study of supervised exercise assessing three doses of exercise in sedentary individuals 65 years of age and over with age-related cognitive changes. A total of 100 subjects (n=25 in each of four groups) will be randomized to a non-aerobic control group, 75 minutes, 150 minutes, or 225 minutes a week of moderate intensity aerobic exercise spread over 3 to 5 days a week for 26 weeks. These exercise doses represent 50%, 100%, or 150% of the recommended exercise dose. Participants will be directly supervised during all exercise sessions for the first two months after which direct supervision will occur during at least one session a week. This is intended to provide increased flexibility while also maintaining direct contact with the participant to enhance adherence. Aerobic fitness, physical function, and cognition will be assessed at baseline and 26 weeks to examine the dose-response relationships.

结局指标
主要结局
Visuospatial Processing
时间窗: 26 weeks
Visuospatial Processing is a latent derived variable derived estimated mean.The reported latent means for this trial are created from the well-known neuropsychological tests: Block Design, Stroop Color Reading, Digit Symbol Substitution and Trailmaking Test A. Latent variables cannot be measured directly but are derived from a theory-driven confirmatory factor analysis in a structural equation model framework. The latent scores are centered around a mean of 0 and standardized so each value represents a fraction of the standard deviation. There are no limits to the scores. Positive number indicate improved performance. Negative numbers indicate worsening performance.
Change in Maximal Oxygen Consumption
时间窗: 26 weeks
Maximal Oxygen consumption (VO2 max) is the standard, quantitative measure of aerobic fitness. The physiologic range of scores is approximately 3.5 milliliters of oxygen per kilogram of body weight per minute (ml/kg/min) to approximately 90 (ml/kg/min). Higher numbers indicate greater fitness and positive change indicates increasing fitness. Lower number indicate worse fitness
Change in Physical Performance Test
时间窗: 26 Week
The Physical Performance Test is a 9-item measure of physical function. The range of scores is 0-34. Higher numbers indicate better physical function. Positive change indicates improving function. Negative change indicates decreasing function.
