Cognitive and physical functions among Chinese community-dwelling older adults with motoric cognitive risk syndrome: A prospective cohort study
Older adults with MCR syndrome experience worse overall cognitive and physical function performance, especially in repeated chair stand tests, than individuals without MCR syndrome over 7-year and 4-year follow-up periods. It is suggested that future interventional studies will target both physical and cognitive functions in MCR syndrome individuals, providing insights for the prevention of dementia.
