Cognitive function was assessed using the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease-Korean version (CERAD-K) assessment battery. Performance changes in each cognitive domain were analyzed for associations with serial data of segmental brain volume and WMSA volume.<h4>Results</h4>A total of 190 subjects were included (115 [60.1 %] females, mean age 68.2 ± 8.2 years [range 50-82 years]). Declines in global cognition were associated with lower baseline (<i>P=</i>0.001) and decreasing volumes (<i>P=</i>0.001) of the hippocampus and amygdala and with increasing total WMSA volumes (<i>P=</i>0.008). Declines in the executive function domain were associated with lower baseline volumes of the hippocampus and amygdala (<i>P</i> = 0.018) and with increasing total WMSA volumes (<i>P=</i>0.015). Declines in the language function and the verbal learning domains were associated with lower baseline (<i>P=</i>0.009 and <i>P=</i>0.002, respectively) and decreasing volumes (<i>P=</i>0.008 and <i>P=</i>0.001, respectively) of the hippocampus and amygdala. Decline in the memory recall was associated with higher total WMSA volumes at baseline (<i>P=</i>0.014).
