Associations of visual, hearing, and dual sensory impairment with motoric cognitive risk syndrome: Observational and Mendelian randomization analyses

Dementia is associated with individual vision impairment (VI) and hearing impairment (HI). However, little is known about their associations with motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR), a pre-dementia stage. We investigated the association of VI, HI, and dual sensory impairment (DSI) with MCR and to further evaluate causal relationships using Mendelian randomization (MR) approach.
