Advanced airflow-limitation stages may exacerbate cognitive dysfunction in community-dwelling older adults. The presence of airflow limitation and low %VC may also be associated with cognitive dysfunction in older women. Consequently, reduced respiratory function may potentially be associated with MCI in community-dwelling older adults. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2024; ••: ••-••.
