Improving Sleep and AD Biomarkers

Recruiting
60 years and older
Both
Phase N/A

This study is looking to see if a *dietary supplement* called citicoline can help with sleep and thinking skills, especially for people with **mild cognitive impairment (MCI)**, a condition where people have trouble with memory and thinking. The study will also check if citicoline affects special markers in the body related to **Alzheimer's Disease (AD)**, a brain disorder that affects memory and thinking. The study is a **double-blind** trial, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who is getting the actual supplement or a **placebo** (a pill that doesn’t have the supplement). Adults over 60 with MCI can join, but they can't participate if they have certain health problems or are taking certain medications. Participants will have their blood drawn to check for AD markers at the start and end of the study.

  • Duration: The study involves baseline and follow-up visits.
  • Compensation: Participants may receive compensation for their time.
  • Risks: Minimal, but participants should not have allergies to citicoline or certain health issues.
