About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to investigate neuroimage and biomarkers in the Alzheimer's continuum in Chinese population. We aimed to:
* To reveal the progress of AD by multiple neuroimage and biomarkers; * To reveal the longitudinal change of biomarkers and cognition of AD in Chinese population; * To investigate the interaction of markers between body and brain; * To set up new markers by neuroimage.
