Cognitive impairment and MRI correlates in the elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract

the data of this cross-sectional study show that type 2 DM is associated with diminished cognitive function in different cognitive domains, while memory is less affected after adjustment for hypertension. The association of cognitive impairment with MRI measures is equivocal, whereas HbA(1c) and duration of DM were significantly associated with cognitive dysfunction.
