Effects of an exercise intervention on proxy-rated functional capacity of and QoL outcomes of institutionalized IwD. Data are mean ± standard deviation; n= 26 in the control group (CG) and n= 38 in the exercise group (EG). Results were expressed as a percentage of T0. *vs T0; # vs EG (p ≤ 0.05). The effect size (partial eta squared) and significant (p ≤ 0.05) main effects of Group, Time and/or their interaction are indicated. T0 baseline values, before the exercise intervention; T1 after 6 months of the exercise intervention. Results adjusted to age
