Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases the risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk factors that are linked with each other, which is a metabolic dysfunction, which contains a combination of multiple.

It is known that METS plays a role in the development of many diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, stroke, cancer, Alzheimer's. Studies have revealed that neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, abnormal lipid metabolism and impaired vascularization, which play a role in the pathogenesis of MetS, affect the structure of the brain and cognition. Atherosclerosis of the carotid artery, increased brain atrophy and white matter damage are potential explanatory mechanisms that lead to an impact on cognitive skills in patients with MetS. In addition, the existence of MetS components such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension alone also negatively affects cognitive functions, and the level of cognitive influence also increases as the number of components an individual has increases.

The literature reports that learning, executive functions, processing speed, attention/working memory and global cognitive functions are affected in individuals with MetS, but no consensus has been reached on this issue. Some studies say that MetS causes a significant decrease in cognitive functions, while some studies indicate that this difference is not significant.

The aim of our study is to proof the relationship between MetS and cognitive functions with metabolic syndrome components.

H1:There is a relationship between the MetS and cognitive functions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Voluntary participants who have been diagnosed with MetS and agreed to voluntary health subjects will be included in the study. Signed voluntary consent will be obtained from participants. Participants will be divided into two groups. There will be individuals diagnosed with MetS in the intervention group and healthy individuals who do not have any problems in the control group.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

MetS Group

it consists of volunteer participants diagnosed with MetS between the ages of 18 and 50. All assessments will be applied to the participants by two different researchers at the same time.

assessment of cognitive performance

Intervention Type OTHER

evaluation of the cognitive and physical performance of the participants by two separate researchers at the same time

Control Group

it will consist of healthy individuals aged 18-50 who do not have any health problems and have volunteered to participate in the study who have undergone a health check within the last 6 months.
