Sensory impairments and cognitive decline in older adults: A review from a population-based perspective

As the population ages, cognitive decline has become a severe public health issue. Meanwhile, sensory impairments, such as hearing loss, olfactory dysfunction, and ophthalmological disorders, are common in older adults, and all these conditions can significantly impact social and psychological funct...
