Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of vascular risk factors which has been related to dementia and cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to describe the neuropsychological profile of metabolic syndrome patients. An extensive neuropsychological protocol was administered to 55 patients and 35 controls assessing memory, executive, visuoperceptual and visuoconstructive functions, language and speed of processing. There were differences between groups in speed of processing and some executive functions after controlling for the influences of education and gender. The results suggest that metabolic syndrome may be a prodromal state of vascular cognitive impairment.
代谢综合征是一组与痴呆和认知衰退相关的血管危险因素。本研究的目的是描述代谢综合征患者的神经心理学特征。对55名患者和35名对照者实施了一项广泛的神经心理学测试方案，评估记忆、执行、视觉感知和视觉构建功能、语言及处理速度。在控制教育和性别的影响后，两组在处理速度和一些执行功能方面存在差异。结果表明，代谢综合征可能是血管性认知障碍的前驱状态。
