Against the backdrop of aging populations worldwide, physical activity programs aimed at promoting the health of older adults have begun to flourish. However, few studies have focused on elderly residents in rural areas who may have multiple comorbidities. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the effects of a 12-week physical activity program on health promotion among rural elderly with multiple diseases. The study included 18 elderly participants, with a mean age of 82.39 years, who had dementia and one or more additional diseases. Among the participants, 89% were female. The results showed that the 12-week physical activity program intervention significantly improved participants' walking speed and range of motion of the arm joints. Based on these findings, it is hoped that this study will provide a reference for future researchers and practitioners targeting rural or elderly populations who may have multiple diseases to develop more comprehensive physical activity programs.
在全球人口老龄化的背景下，旨在促进老年人健康的体育活动项目开始蓬勃发展。然而，很少有研究关注可能患有多种合并症的农村老年居民。因此，本研究旨在调查一项为期12周的体育活动项目对患有多种疾病的农村老年人健康促进的影响。该研究纳入了18名老年参与者，平均年龄为82.39岁，他们患有痴呆症以及一种或多种其他疾病。参与者中89%为女性。结果表明，为期12周的体育活动项目干预显著提高了参与者的步行速度和手臂关节活动范围。基于这些发现，希望本研究能为未来针对可能患有多种疾病的农村或老年人群的研究人员和从业者制定更全面的体育活动项目提供参考。
