Abstract

Motoric Cognitive Risk Syndrome (MCR) is a pre-dementia syndrome. The aim of this study was to examine whether there is: 1) an association between MCR and cardiovascular diseases and risk factors (CVDRF) in the Canadian population, and 2) a specific MCR-related CVDRF profile (i.e., cardiovascular diseases (CVD) versus cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) versus both) when comparing different age groups.
