Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a registered, active interventional study comparing neurophysiological responses to live versus pre-recorded music in early Alzheimer's disease patients and their caregivers. No results have been published or posted in this registry record, so the efficacy, safety, or clinical value of the intervention cannot be evaluated at this time.

This is a clinical trial registry record for an active, ongoing study with no reported results; it describes planned neurophysiological measurements in a small sample (n=60) comparing live and pre-recorded music in early Alzheimer's disease and caregivers.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06940687). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Yale University. Recruitment status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 60 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Alzheimer Disease, Dementia, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Peer-bonded Caregiver, Caregiver. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Pre-recorded Music Session; BEHAVIORAL: Live Music Session. Primary outcome measures: Change in EEG activity during live music vs pre-recorded music conditions , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; motion capture , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; facial action units , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; eye gaze , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; Changes in Standard Deviation of Normal-to-Normal (SDNN) Interval via electrocardiography (ECG, EKG). , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; Changes in Root Mean Square of Successive Differences (RMSSD) via electrocardiography (ECG, EKG). , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; Changes in Very low frequency (VLF) via electrocardiography (ECG, EKG). , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart; Changes in the ratio of low frequency and high frequency (LF/HF) via electrocardiography (ECG, EKG). , Day 1 and Day 2, an average of 1 week apart. Brief summary: This study aims to investigate the neurophysiological effects of live music on individuals with early Alzheimer's Disease (AD), dementia, and/or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and their caregivers. Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and brain activity will be measured as participant-caregiver dyads listen to preferred and improvised music performed by professional musicians. Investigators will leverage various measurement techniques including, but not limited to, electroencephalography (EEG), behavioral, surveys, and physiological monitoring to study the impact of live music on anxiety in AD and inter-dyad synchrony.
