Body composition and cognitive function in Chinese rural adults: an exploratory factor analysis and network analysis
This study found that "central obesity" increased the risk of cognitive decline, while "muscle mass" and "leg-dominant fat distribution" had protective effects. Interventions targeting language, attention, and registration domains might help address cognitive decline caused by changes in body composition.
