Adults 50 to 80, any sex, with Mild Cognitive Impairment or Alzheimer Disease. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.
Sponsor's own description
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of coenzyme Q10 supplementation (150 mg/b.i.d, 300 mg/d, 12 weeks) on coenzyme Q10, glucose parameters, BDNF, myokines, and cognitive function in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients who combined with hyperglycemia but without sarcopenia, or with hyperglycemia and pre-sarcopenia.
