What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study looks at 150 older adults with mild cognitive impairment who already practice Tai Chi regularly. Researchers want to see if a computer model can predict who gets the most cognitive benefit and what dose works best. It's an observational study, meaning no one is assigned to Tai Chi—it just observes existing habits to validate a prediction tool.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
24-form Simplified Tai Chi (observational, not assigned)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors personalize Tai Chi recommendations for elderly with mild cognitive impairment, improving cognitive benefits.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a trial of a new treatment. It only validates an existing model, so it won't prove Tai Chi works—just who might benefit.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This cross-sectional real-world external validation study will enroll 150 community-dwelling older adults aged 60 years and above, who are diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and have regular practice of standardized 24-form simplified Tai Chi for at least 6 months (consistent with the form used in the parent RCTs). Eligible participants will be recruited from communities in Fuzhou, China, to validate the generalizability and clinical applicability of a pre-developed machine learning prediction model for Tai Chi cognitive benefit population identification.

Ages
