Detailed Description
Metabolomics is new science based on metabolite profiles in biofluids and tissues, which under bioinformatics approaches and analyses could help to characterize metabolomic status of CSF in aging process. In this prospective study, the investigators plan to enroll 200 health volunteers and 40 neurodegenerative diseases patients with received operation under spinal anesthesia. Blood and CSF samples will be analyzed using hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) and lipid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| All patients Spinal anesthesia |
Procedure: spinal anesthesia
Plan to enroll 200 health volunteers and 40 neurodegenerative diseases patients with received spinal anesthesia. Blood will be collected at time point of pre-anesthesia 10 minutes and CSF samples will be collected at time point during spinal anesthesia induction. Blood will be collected, drawn into EDTA-coated tube.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Exam metabolic profiles of CSF in aging process and age-related neurodegenerative diseases [An average of 1 year]
Metabolites analysis of CSF will be investigated by NMR, LC-MS. Peak lists of all NMR and LC/MS/MS spectra will be searched against the database through a web server for metabolomic data analysis and further establish the CSF Metabolome Database.
