About this trial

The purpose of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the risk factors for cognitive decline in patients with moyamoya disease, identify imaging target areas associated with cognitive damage in the brain, and explore the changes in brain structure and functional networks resulting from cerebral revascularization, as well as their relationship with cognitive improvement.
