结局指标
主要结局
Changes in standardized scores on a neuropsychological test battery
时间窗: baseline, 4th week, 8th week
A composite z-scores were calculated from the scores of the neuropsychological test battery on attention and working memory. The test battery included Letter-number sequencing, Digit span (forward), and tasks from the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) including the Match-to-Sample Visual Search, Reaction Rime, Rapid Visual Information Processing, and Stop Signal tasks.
次要结局
- Metabolic brain changes in magnetic resonance imaging assessed by computational approaches(baseline, 8th week)
- Changes in scores of the Subjective Memory Complaints Questionnaire(baseline, 4th week, 8th week)
- Number of participants with adverse events(4th week, 8th week)
- Changes of brain volume in magnetic resonance imaging assessed by computational approaches(baseline, 8th week)
- Changes of cortical thickness in magnetic resonance imaging assessed by computational approaches(baseline, 8th week)
- Functional brain changes in magnetic resonance imaging assessed by computational approaches(baseline, 8th week)
