Neuropsychological methods in the differentiation of organic solvent intoxication from certain neurological conditions.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Although metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been shown to increase the risk of cognitive decline, it still remains unclear whether the risk is related to MetS as a whole or its individual factors. The aim of the present study was to explore whether MetS or its individual factors are associated with a lower cogniti...
