Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association of metabolic syndrome (MS) and its individual components with indicators of cognitive function (CF) in a population sample of older people in Western Siberia. Material and methods . The current analysis, conducted in the frame of project supported by RSF, used the data from the international project HAPIEE which recruited a random population sample of 9.360 men and women aged 45-69 years old resident in Novosibirsk. Immediate and delayed word recall and verbal fluency tests were used to assess cognitive functions in a random subsample ( n = 4765). Metabolic syndrome was based on measurements of blood pressure, anthropometry, blood lipids and blood glucose levels. Results . After adjustment for age, sex and education, the mean immediate word recall and verbal fluence were significantly lower in subjects with MS than in persons without MS ( p < 0.05); the difference in delayed recall was not significant ( p > 0.05). Cognitive functions were significantly inversely associated with presence of all individual components of MS. Conclusion . This large study in general population of middle aged and older persons in a large industrial center of Western Siberia, we found a significant decline in cognitive functions associated with MS and its components.
