Registered outcomes10
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Dietary quality | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | Habitual dietary intake (energy, fat, added sugar, and fiber intakes; fruit and vegetable intakes) will be assessed using three 24-hour recalls using the online Automated Self-Administered 24-hour (ASA24) Dietary Assessment Tool, version (2020), developed by the National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD. A registered dietitian will collect recalls within a two-week period. The dietary recall will be used to calculate diet quality using the HEI. The score ranges from 0 to 100; higher scores indicate better adherence to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. |
| Secondary | Mobility and balance | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | The Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) will be used to measure mobility and balance. The FGA is a 10-item clinical gait test that is based on the dynamic gait index (DGI). It tests higher-level dynamic gait activities that are part of daily functional mobility, such as turning safely and ambulating backward. Total scores range from 0 to 30, and scores below 22 are predictive of future falls |
| Secondary | Metabolic health outcomes | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | We will measure biomarkers of dietary changes(lipid profile; hemoglobin A1C) and cardiometabolic risk factors. We may measure new hormones, inflammatory proteins, and other biomarkers as new technologies for measuring diet- and muscle-health biomarkers emerge. |
| Secondary | Physical function | Baseline, 3 months and 6 months | The Modified Physical Performance Test (MPPT) will assess function. The MPPT is a nine-item standardized test used to identify frailty and mobility dysfunction in older individuals. It scores individuals on the time it takes to complete tasks such as donning and doffing a coat, picking a penny from the ground, and ascending the stairs. These scores are summed out of 36, and scores below 32 indicate at least mild frailty. |
| Secondary | Blood pressure | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | Resting blood pressure will be measured in the seated position using a mercury sphygmomanometer after a 15-min period of rest. |
| Secondary | Body Mass Index (BMI) | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | 1. Height will be measured by a stadiometer to the nearest ¼ inch without shoes. 2. Body weight will be measured to the nearest ½ pound in light clothing without shoes using a beam balance scale. 3. BMI= Weight (kg) / Height (m2) |
| Secondary | Waist circumference | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | Measure waist circumference with a standard tape measure. |
| Secondary | Grip strength | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | Grip strength: maximal isometric contraction of the biceps muscle measured with a hand dynamometer. |
| Secondary | Gait speed | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | Gait speed: the time it takes to walk 10 m at a normal/usual walking pace. |
| Secondary | Falls-Efficacy Scale-International (FES-I) | Baseline, 3 months, and 6 months | The FES-I is a 16-item self-report tool that measures fear of falling during routine activities such as preparing a meal, going shopping, getting dressed, visiting friends and family, and reaching up or bending down. The level of concern is measured on a four-point Likert scale (1=not at all concerned to 4=very concerned). It is scored from 16 to 64 points (high fear of falling \>23 points). |
