Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of modifiable lifestyle factors including exercise and healthy living on brain health. The investigators will compare 2 types of interventions, moderate aerobic walking vs. healthy living education, over 6 months to evaluate changes in brain health, cognition, and physical function in older adults with cognitive concerns.
Primary Outcome
Functional MRI has proven to be an effective non-invasive, in-vivo tool for measuring brain function via the BOLD signal. Growing evidence supports that fMRI BOLD can detect neuronal changes that occur very early in the disease process. The hippocampus has been shown to be a selectively vulnerable region in AD, and several studies, including our own, identified a aberrant brain signal in the hippocampus in older adults. The typical range for this outcome is -10 to 10 with higher scores indicatin
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Moderate-aerobic walking
- RADIATION Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan
- BEHAVIORAL Healthy living education
- DEVICE Physical activity monitor
