Research plan Neuropsychological battery Biomarkers: Blood: Apo E polymorphism, Amyloid 40, 42, and tau CSF: Amyloid 40,42 and tau MRI: Multimodal PET: 18F-FDG 18F-AV-45
6 cities, 10 sites joined in this study, distributed in the northern, eastern, central and southwestern part of china mainland.

Enrolled Subjects 36 New subjects enrolled in the past 1 year, totally 121 cases:
Enrollment in recent 3 years We have not figured out the drop-out rate

MMSE Score Follow-up MoCA Score Follow-up The MoCA score nearly unchanged in NC, but those of MCI and AD groups reduced beginning at 6 months, especially MCI groups decreased significantly at 12 months. The MMSE scores of NC and EMCI essentially unchanged, however, LMCI and AD slightly reduced.
MRI Study Standard protocol for MRI scanning Quality control among different sites Improve the post-processing methods
Scanning protocol of MRI 3D T1 volume Diffusion tensor imaging Resting state fMRI Arterial spin labelling Susceptibility weighted imaging
A individual-level inline morphometry analysis Hippocampus and left temporal cortical matter are significant in distinguish AD and MCI from normal elderly, while the discrimination of MCI with NC seems more difficult A new brain template based on 2020 normal Han people
On the rest state fMRI data Changes of hub, short distance, and long distance functional connectivity among AD, MCI, and NC groups pairwise contrastwas done Prefrontal cortex may play a key role in the AD functional connectivity compensation, whereas left anterior insula/frontal operculum and bilateral precuneus compromised in MCI indicate that the default mode network and dorsal attention network activity were involved in MCI period.
PET Study AD MCI NC Nearly 80% cases had undergone the baseline examination of FDG-PET, the hypometabolic region could be depicted in AD and some MCI patients.
18F-AV-45-PET AD patient, 70 years, male. a large number of amyloid plaque depositionin in the brain, mainly involvedthe frontal, and parietal lobes.
Epidemiological survey • From 2015.5 to 2016.5 • Three communities in the northern part of Sichuan province, • The surveyincluding 4120 inhabitants elder than 40yrs • Mobidity of AD and VD is 0.29% and 0.19% respectively.
physical training, intellectual activity, and green tea are protective factor of dementia.
Acupuncture effect on AD The increased connectivity of right middle frontal gyrus to left hippocampus and the superior/inferior temporal gyrus to right hippocampus in AD after acupuncture Wang, and Li.PLoS One. 2014,6;9(3):e91160
MCI and ADpatients enrollment MRI scan Neuropsychological test Standard Acupuncture Treatment MRI scan Neuropsychological test A longitudinal clinical trial is in progress 120 MCI and AD patients was divided into true and false acupoints groups and neuropsychological test and rs-fMRI examination were performed, follow-up themthree years. To evaluationthe effect of acupuncture for MCI and AD.
