About this study

This study aimed to investigate relationship between cognitive function and functional mobility in Alzheimer's disease.

Read the detailed description

Our hypothesis is that the decrease in cognitive function in individuals with Alzheimer's disease is associated with the level of functional mobility. Sociodemographic information of participants will be recorded. Cognition will assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), global score and MoCA's visuospatial executive functions, naming, attention, language, abstract thinking, delayed recall, orientation sub-scores will recorded. Functional mobility will assessed Timed Up and Go Test and 5 Times Sit\&Stand Test.

Alzheimer Disease

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Montreal Cognitive Assesment (MoCA)

    MoCA assesses cognitive skills such as visuospatial / executive functioning, object naming, memory, attention, language, abstraction, orientation. Higher scores reflect the better performance.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Timed Up and Go Test

    Timed Up and Go Test measures the level of functional mobility skills and, assess fall risk and balance. The time elapsed between standing up from the sitting position, walking the distance of 3 meters, coming back and sitting back on the chair is recorded. The shorter time reflect the better performance.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. 5 Time Sit to Stand Test

    5 Time Sit to Stand Test measures the level of functional mobility skills and, assess fall risk and lower extremity strength. The test measures the time taken to stand five times from a sitting position as quickly as possible. The shorter time reflect the better performance.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Alzheimer Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease, run by Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Kübra Nur Menengiç, MSc (+90 05054400987, kmenengic@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Montreal Cognitive Assesment (MoCA) (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Nov 2021.
