HONG KONG Homme Nike Air Max Flair Ultramarine Blanche Bleu Pas Cher , Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese University of Hong Kong Thursday launched a study to explore whether retinal imaging or blood biomarkers in the Chinese population can be used to screen for early Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Over half of dementia cases are linked with AD, which, the university's researchers said, is associated with an excessive accumulation of abnormal protein - amyloid plaques. When this protein and neurofibrillary tangles in human brains, it will lead to the death of brain cells and result in progressive cognitive decline.

Vincent Chung Tong Mok Homme Nike Air Max DLX Chaussures Noir Pas Cher , head of Division of Neurology of the university's Department of Medicine and Therapeutics said recent studies suggested that anti-amyloid treatment may prevent further cognitive decline only if it is given when the disease is still at an early stage.

"The earlier we can detect, the earlier we can intervene when the disease is still mild," Mok said, hoping that the progression can slow down or even stop.

Currently, diagnosing AD at an early stage requires the use of amyloid-PET scan or testing of cerebrospinal fluid collected via lumber puncture.

However Homme Nike Air VaporMax Plus Bordeaux Noir Pas Cher , such investigations are invasive and not easily accessible. It is hoped that the newly launched study can help to explore whether retinal imaging or blood biomarkers in the Chinese population can be used to screen for early AD.

Carol Yim Lui Cheung, assistant professor of the university's Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences said that the retina exists as an extension of central nervous system, offering a "window" to study cerebral microvascular and neurodegenerative damage.

"We have made significant progress in developing and applying retinal imaging as a non-invasive biomarker test to study microvascular and neuronal pathology in the eye and in the brain," she said.

A total of 100 subjects aged between 50 and 80 will be recruited to the study, including patients with mild cognitive impairment Homme Nike Air VaporMax Plus Jaune Noir Pas Cher , AD dementia and subjects with normal cognition. They will undergo a series of clinical assessments, including cognitive test, blood test, brain MRI and amyloid-PET scan.

A Servant of Two Masters was the last of the six plays I saw during the opening season of Theatre Above in Shanghai, the first theater of US-born Taiwanese auteur Stan Lai Femme Nike Air VaporMax Plus Rose Blanche Pas Cher , who is one of the leading Chinese practitioners of the craft.

From the end of December to the end of February, Lai is selecting six of his Performance Workshop's famed plays to stage at Theatre Above.

All of them are delivered in Chinese with English subtitles. They included Sand on a Distant Star, which featured popular Hong Kong actress Cheng Pei-pei; A Blurry Kind of Love, with Taiwanese heartthrob singer Chen Chia-hwa; and Crosstalk Travelers, with Chinese TV host and actor Dai Jun.

These three shows sold tickets quickly thanks to those big names Homme Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Marine Bleu Pas Cher , but failed to receive commensurate reviews.

Big names

Sand on a Distant Star tells the romantic story of the fantasies people have when they are frustrated in life.

It offers up some profound thoughts amid slapstick, but unfortunately this production lost its beauty and flow due to the actors repeatedly making mistakes in the delivery of their lines.

A blend of the 18th century French comedy The Game of Love and Chance and Chinese TV and film romances of the late 20th Century, A Blurry Kind of Love aroused constant lighthearted laughter from the audience with its exaggerated performances.

It touched upon common relationship anxieties, but offered few surprises in its storytelling.

Crosstalk Travelers offered a mirror for audience to examine themselves through two Chinese travelers' endless complaints about their compatriots' bad behavior when outside of their home country.

It's admirable to see the director daring to directly criticize Chinese travelers, so that the audience can reflect on their own behavior while traveling and even in their daily lives.

Yet Femme Nike Vapormax Clair Grise Blanche Rose Pas Cher , the play did seem too preachy, and became dreary because of it.

In comparison, the other three plays offer more in the way of surprise. A Servant of Two Masters, which featured a new cast of actors Lai specifically recruited for Theatre Above, filled the audience with constant laughter and applause.

The 135-minute show resembled a lively Spring Festival gala Homme Nike Air VaporMax Noir Or Pas Cher , which offered not only fun but also touching material and bonus performances such as acrobatics.

Adapted from the namesake comedy written by Italian playwright Carlo Goldoni in the 18th century, Lai's A Servant of Two Masters has localized its content for Chinese society and has some dialogue in Shanghai dialect especially for local audience.

Zong Juntao played the role of Truffaldino, a servant who covertly found himself two masters and struggled to satisfy each while not getting caught by either of them.

He delivered vividly the covetous grass-roots role, and unexpectedly plucked on my heart string as I found resonance with him.

Lai satirically emphasizes Truffaldino's status as an individual who has the right to choose his own path. However, the character squanders this right by taking on extra burdens in the pursuit of money Homme Nike Air VaporMax Utility Triple Noir Pas Cher , under the selfish belief that his becoming rich means society has achieved harmony.

A Servant of Two Masters enchanted me with its flow of laughter and satire, while Just Play It touched people with the . Cheap Jerseys China Online   Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale   Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale   Cheap Soccer Hats China   Cheap NHL Jerseys China   Cheap NBA Hoodies China   Cheap MLB Hoodies China   Wholesale Jerseys   Wholesale Jerseys   Wholesale NFL Jerseys
