Background: It is unclear whether the metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases risk of cognitive dysfunction beyond the level expected from its individual components. We examined the association of MetS with cognitive dysfunction and assessed whether MetS increased risk of cognitive dysfunction more than that of the sum of its individual components.
Methods: Data on 823 participants were used from the SMART-study, a cohort study among patients with atherosclerotic disease.
