Characteristics of Cognitively Unimpaired Older Adults with Motoric Cognitive Risk
The study results demonstrate a significant difference in cognitive test performance and depression between those with MCR and without. This supports MCR as a distinct group and potentially as a tool to identify those at risk for later cognitive decline. Future research should examine the relationship between depression and MCR to determine causality, ATN markers in MCR and utility of MCR as a diagnostic category.
