The few extant studies report differences in risk profiles for pre-dementia and dementia syndromes among urban and rural residents. We compared risk factors and brain substrates of Motoric Cognitive Risk (MCR) syndrome, a pre-dementia syndrome identified by slow gait speed and subjective cognitive concerns, in urban and rural participants in the Kerala-Einstein study.
