The cerebellar-related cognitive function is sensitive to aging: implications for early detection
The current results indicate a dissociation between general cognitive scores screened by MMSE and cerebellar-specific cognitive impairments. Furthermore, as the cerebellum plays a critical role in both sensorimotor and cognitive domains, the current study highlight the importance of incorporating screening tools which are sensitive to cerebellar functions in aging research.
