Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of social isolation and social interaction on the risk of dementia progression and brain function in SCD 1. To explore the association between social isolation and lonely SCD populations and the occurrence and progression of MCI and AD through cross-sectional studies, cohort studies and randomized controlled trials of SCD; 2. To clarify the correlation between different carrier states, resting brain function connectivity characteristics, and dual-task walking ability of APOEε4 allele and the progression of SCD to MCI and AD during the cognitive progress of people with SCD affected by social isolation; 3. Establish a predictive model of cognitive decline from SCD to MCI and AD, and apply it to the SCD population to carry out individualized interventions; 4. Confirm the protective effect of social interaction on cognitive level and brain function in SCD patients.
The prevalence of mental disorders and developmental behavioral disorders (such as depressive disorders,anxiety disorders, autism spectrum disorders,attention deficit disorder,ect.)among children and adolescents in China is increasing,leading to difficulty in early identification of children and poor diagnosis and treatment effects,which brings significant financial burden to the families and the country.We will carry out a multi-center epidemiological survey on common mental disorders above among children and adolescents in Sichuan-Chongqing region and clarify the prevalence,geographical distribution and demographic characteristics.A total of more than 12,000 children and adolescents under 18 years old with a diagnosis of depression/anxiety disorders/ASD/ADHD based on DSM-5 criteria is included to build a research platform and database,so that we will formulate intelligence diagnosis and treatment standards.This study will establish the "Children and Adolescents Mental and Developmental Disabilities Innovation Alliance" in Sichuan and Chongqing areas and finally build intelligent early warning,diagnosis and intervention systems for disease in hope that technology transformation to be promoted and applied.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to diabetes (DM). DM will aggravate the progression of AD, but the specific mechanism has not yet been clarified. Previous study found that a key pathological feature of the pancreas in patients with DM is islet amyloid polypeptide, and there is also islet amyloid polypeptide in the brain. Therefore, DM may cause cytotoxicity through the interaction between pancreatic amyloid and brain Aβ protein and further aggravate AD progress. In this study, starting with DM and AD pathological biomarkers, the amyloid PET target molecular probe 18F-AV45 will be used to monitor the dynamic changes of amyloid protein in the brain and pancreas during the development of AD. The completion of this study will provide a new view for understanding the mechanism of DM on AD cognitive dysfunction and effectively preventing and treating these two diseases.
