Tai Chi RCT Data for Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment, 315 Participants

315 participants were randomized in a three-arm trial comparing Tai Chi, conventional exercise, and health education over 26 weeks. The dataset contains baseline and post-intervention measurements for cognitive and physical function, including HK-MoCA and SPPB scores. It was uploaded by Yuyi Li on figshare in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Compare intervention efficacy based on HK-MoCA total scores and domain-specific subscores
• Analyze physical performance changes based on Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) total and subcomponent scores
• Evaluate adherence and outcomes based on attendance and group assignment variables
• Assess baseline characteristics based on demographic and anthropometric measures

Strengths

• 315 participants provide a substantial sample size for a randomized controlled trial
• Data includes both cognitive (HK-MoCA) and physical (SPPB) function metrics with domain-specific subscores
• Follows intention-to-treat principle with measurements at baseline and 26-week post-intervention
• Data is fully de-identified with no personally identifiable information

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
