Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Changes of brain image [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]
    Measure and record the volume changes of diseased alba, the micro-structure changes of alba fasciculus by MRI to see if the therapy effect or not.

  2. Measure and assess the changes of VaDAS-cog ( Vascular Dementia Assessment Scale cognitive subscale ) among time points [ Time Frame: 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks ]
    Measure and record with VaDAS-cog


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Measure and assess the changes of MMSE ( Mini-mental State Examination ) among time points [ Time Frame: 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks ]
    Measure and record with MMSE

  2. Measure and assess the changes of ADL ( Activity of Daily Living ) among time points [ Time Frame: 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks ]
    Measure and record with ADL

  3. Measure and assess the changes of CDR ( Clinical Dementia Rating ) among time points [ Time Frame: 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 48 weeks ]
    Measure and record with CDR

  4. Incidence rate of outcome event [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]
    Record the outcome event and analyse the incidence rate

  5. Therapeutic effect [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]
    Measure and record patients' systolic and diastolic blood pressure and analyse related data

  6. Metabonomics [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ]
    Measure and record the metabonomics ( Trx & TrxR ) index


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
Blood sample; Urine sample.
