OBSERVATIONAL

Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The rate of mild cognitive impairment occurrence1 year

The rate of Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA) scores less than 26 points after 1 year's follow-up.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Olfactory threshold test1 day

The same odor with 2 different concentrations are given to the participant each time to find out which one is more intense. (Olfactory software will analyse and give threshold score depending on participant's choice.)

Olfactory memory test1 day

PART A: Participants are shown 4 pictures for each odor(10 odors in total). They select what they sniffed.

10 minutes break. PART B: Participants sniff 20 different odors , 10 of which are same odors in PART A. They select the picture and figure out whether the odor is old or new.

Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score1 day

The MoCA is a cognitive screening test designed to assist health professionals in detection of mild cognitive impairment.

Glycaemic control measured by blood test.1 day

HbA1c

Physical assessments.1 day

BMI(body mess index) in kg/m\^2
