Data Sheet 1_Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial of a culturally adapted card

A 12-week randomized controlled trial protocol for a culturally adapted cardiovascular dance intervention. The study involves 22 adult Mapuche women with overweight or obesity from an Indigenous community in Padre Las Casas, Chile. The protocol was authored by Cristóbal Riquelme-Hernández and published on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Designing culturally adapted health interventions based on the described methodology for Mapuche women.
• Analyzing the impact of traditional dance on psychosocial outcomes like motivation and perceived barriers.
• Comparing intervention effects on cardiorespiratory fitness and physical health indices between study groups.
• Studying the integration of cultural elements to enhance adherence and community engagement in health programs.

Strengths

• The protocol is for a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group clinical trial, a rigorous study design.
• Specifics include a 12-week duration with one-hour sessions three times per week.
• Clear primary (cardiorespiratory fitness) and secondary (quality of life, motivation) outcomes are defined.
• The study is registered with a clinical trials identifier (NCT06903455).

Limitations

• The dataset is a 140.5 KB PDF protocol document, not the underlying trial data, which limits direct analysis.
• The actual participant data, column definitions, and row counts are not provided.
• The sample size is small (22 participants), which may limit generalizability of any future published results.
