Tokyo, Sept. 10 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000062849) titled 'A Study on the Effects of Aging and Exercise on Cardiovascular, Cognitive, and Motor Functions' on Sept. 10.
Study Type:
Interventional
Study Design:
Basic Design - Parallel
Randomization - Randomized
Blinding - Open -no one is blinded
Control - Placebo
Primary Sponsor:
Institute - National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology
Condition:
Condition - Adult
Classification by malignancy - Others
Genomic information - NO
Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - This study aims to characterize age-related declines in cardiovascular regulatory function and to explore strategies for preventing cardiovascular disease and dementia. In healthy adults, arterial morphology and hemodynamic responses (blood pressure and blood flow) in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle will be assessed during physiological perturbations to evaluate vascular function. Comparisons across age groups and habitual exercise status will determine whether regular physical activity attenuates these declines. In addition, an interventional study will examine the effects of structured exercise programs (stretching, aerobic, resistance, and combined training) on cardiovascular regulation. Cognitive function, physical performance, and mood will also be assessed to examine their relationships with cardiovascular regulatory function.
