Previous evidence further demonstrates neurodegeneration is the biological substrate for cognitive deterioration and younger brain age may protect the brain from the deleterious effects of neurodegeneration. However, little is known about the relationships between CRF, brain age, and neurodegeneration in older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The aim of this cross-sectional study was to examine associations between CRF, brain age, and neurodegeneration among individuals with aMCI, using baseline data from the Aerobic exercise and Cognitive Training (ACT) trial, which examined the cognitive effects and underlying mechanisms of a 6-month ACT in older adults with aMCI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      CRF was measured with peak oxygen uptake (VO\n                      <jats:sub>2peak<\/jats:sub>\n                      ), from a symptom-limited peak cycle-ergometer test.
