Are white matter alterations related to cognitive impairment in patients with metabolic syndrome?
Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetSd)

Correlation between white matter fractional anisotropy and processing speedsurrogate
Metabolic syndrome is associated with structural white matter alterations and cognitive impairment, highlighting the importance of its prevention and control.
We found significant correlations between WM alterations and cognitive impairment in MetSd patients, especially in the frontal lobe. These findings highlight the importance of MetSd prevention and control due to its association with structural and functional damage in the central nervous system.
