Dementia Risk and Dynamic Response to Exercise

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2019
Research suggests that physical exercise supports brain health and cognition as we age. The goal of this project is to examine the specific changes in brain blood flow and biological factors in the blood immediately after exercise in older adults who have the APOE4 gene, a genetic risk factor for developing Alzheimer\'s. Results from this study will help researchers and clinicians understand and measure changes in the body and brain as a function of exercise, and how those changes relate to Alzheimer\'s risk.
