Research Abstract |
In animal experiment the acute administration of cholinesterase inhibitor(ChEI) activated the sympathetic nervous system, while the chronic administration affected the parasympathetic nervous system. In the clinical study, we found the negative correlation between depressive mood and the activity of sympathetic nervous system in AD subjects.
