Aim. develop and examine physical activity program, cognitive rehabilitation training, and new life-style (combination of exercise and cognitive) interventions on primary outcomes (cognitive function), and secondary outcomes (physical fitness, QOL and depression) among community-dwelling elderly adults with MCI.~Background. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a common clinical syndrome that identifies people at high risk of developing dementia, and the prevalence range from 7.7 to 51.7%. Although treatments for MCI are currently unavailable, preliminary evidence has identified potential neuro-protective effects of exercise program and cognitive rehabilitation, which may lead to improved outcomes. However, the design and delivery of an appropriate program for people with MCI is challenging for having physical, psychological, cognitive, and social barriers.~Design. A prospective randomized control trial. We developed a Physical activity stage-matched intervention (SMI) (1st year), cognitive rehabilitation (2nd year) and New lifestyle program
This project is proposed to be a three-year project. The purposes of this project are to develop and examine physical activity program, cognitive rehabilitation training, and new life-style (combination of exercise and cognitive) interventions on primary outcomes (cognitive function), and secondary outcomes (physical fitness, QOL and depression) among community-dwelling elderly adults with MCI.
