Report of the substudy assessing the impact of neurocognitive function on quality of life 5 years after cardiac surgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:The prevalence of silent brain infarcts varies from 8% to 28% in the general elderly population. Silent brain infarcts are associated with increased risk of subsequent stroke and cognitive dysfunction. By definition, silent strokes lack clinically overt stroke-like symptoms and fail to come to cl...
