It is mainly used "Principle of clinical study guidance for treatment of senile disease by Chinese medicine, Western medicine"("中藥新藥治療老年病臨床硏究指導原則"), "Principle of clinical study guidance for treatment of dementia by Chinese medicine, Western medicine" as the criterion for treatment effect evaluation, and score change of MMSE and HDS is used as assistant evaluation indicator.
