End stage renal disease (ESRD) is the last stage (stage 5) of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Abnormalities of cognitive function and high levels of depression or anxiety incidence are characteristic of hemodialysis patients. In this research project, the investigators subject in ESRD patients starting hemodialysis as the carrier. Based on the longitudinal research design, using multimodal neuroimaging data,combining with the interact relationship between changes of brain morphology, the dysfunction of resting-state and-task state with cognitive impairment and abnormal emotions.Establish brain structure-function change model associated with dialysis progression, Explore imaging markers of central and disease development characteristics in ESRD patients. the investigators attempt to clarify the core mechanism of kidney-brain axis damage, thus provide evidence for early cognitive-behavioral therapy to CKD patient.
