Aktivní komparátor: Computerized Olfactory Training (COT) Device with olfactory stimulants
COT device with olfactory stimulants consists of daily 40 cycles of intervention with a combination of olfactory stimulation and training tasks, lasting ~45 minutes, delivered once daily over 6 months period by the participant or their partner/caregiver.
|
The COT with proprietary odorant molecules is designed to stimulate olfactory neural activity over long periods of time combined with orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) dependent olfactory tasks.

Falešný srovnávač: Sham/COT Device
This is COT device that uses compressed room air scented with phenylethylamine (rose scent) instead of olfactory stimulants and has shape pattern matching tasks instead of cognitive tasks, in order to blind users to their treatment assignment.
Similar to the COT, sham COT will be used daily for 45 minutes.
|
Sham COT uses artificially scented compressed room air instead of olfactory stimulants and has control cognitive olfactory tasks.

ADCS-PACC composite score
Časové okno: Baseline
|
Combines tests that assess episodic memory, timed executive function and global cognition.
Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study (ADCS) PACC (ADAS-PACC) is a composite score of: The Total Recall score from the Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT) (range from 0-48 points), The Delayed Recall score on the Logical Memory IIa subtest from the Wechsler Memory Scale (range from 0-25 points), the Digit Symbol Substitution Test score from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (range from 0-93 points), and the MMSE score (range from 0-30 points).
Each of the component change scores is divided by the baseline sample standard deviation of that component, to form standardized z scores.
These z scores are summed to form the composite.
Z Scores could range from -5 to +5 with higher scores indicating less deficit and lower scores indicating greater deficit.
