Multidomain Intervention Via a None-face-to-face Platform in Mild Cognitive Impairment

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study will be done to investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of a 24-week multidomain intervention program consisting of cognitive training, exercise, nutrition management, vascular disease risk factor management, and motivational enhancement on the cognitive function via none-face-to-face platform in mild cognitive impairment.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The physical exercise program will consist of aerobic exercise, exercise to enhance balance and flexibility, muscle-strengthening activities involving major muscle groups, and finger-toe movements. Cognitive training targets the cognitive domains of episodic memory, executive function, attention, working memory, calculation, and visuospatial function. Cognitive training will be conducted using a tablet-based application. Participants will be advised to eat something according to the recommendation of the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay diet (MIND) diet. They will be educated about vascular risk factor management every 2 weeks. The purpose of the motivational enhancement program is to induce, maintain, and strengthen motivation, which is a psychological resource to help maintain dementia prevention activities. All intervention will be administered via tablet personal computer (PC) application at home.

Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: Multidomain intervention<br>The participants in the intervention arm will receive all five components of the intervention: (1) monitoring and management of metabolic and vascular risk factors; (2) cognitive training; (3) physical exercise; (4) nutritional guidance; and (5) motivational training via none-face-to-face tablet PC application (app). | Behavioral: Multidomain intervention<br>* For 24 weeks, participants will receive cognitive training twice a week, exercise 3 times a week, nutrition education 12 times, and education about vascular risk factor management every 2 weeks using the tablet PC application.<br>* Other names: multidomain cognitive intervention;|

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Change of global cognition | Mini-Mental State Examination (range 0-30). Higher scores indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of function | Clinical Dementia Rating scale-Sum of Boxes (range 0-18). Higher scores indicate worse performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of subjective memory | Prospective and Retrospective Memory Questionnaire (range 16-80). Higher scores indicate worse performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of depression | Geriatric Depression Scale-15 items (range 0-15). Higher scores indicate worse performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Quality of life assessed by the Quality of life-Alzheimer's disease | Quality of life-Alzheimer's disease (range 0-52). Higher scores indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of activities of daily living | Bayer Activities of Daily Living (range 1-10). Higher scores indicate worse performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of nutritional behavior | Nutrition Quotient for elderly (range 0-100). Higher scores indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of nutrition | Mini Nutritional Assessment (range 0-14). Higher scores indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of motor function | Short Physical Performance Battery (range 0-12). Higher scores indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Sleep quality assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index | Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (range 0-21). Higher scores indicate worse performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks | 
| Change of motivation | Self Determination Index (SDI) (range -66 66). Higher scores of SDI indicate better performance. | Change from Baseline at 24 weeks. Higher scores indicate better performance. |
