“…Small vessel disease not only could predict future cognitive decline in elderly people with T2DM [45] but also was associated with the hippocampal atrophic changes [46] (Figure 1). Further, accelerated cognitive decline in patients with T2DM was associated with vascular damages [47]; arterial stiffness was increased and significantly associated with cognition impairments in T2DM patients [16].…”

“…Impaired cognition functions in patients with T2DM were manifested in a variety of domains, such as attention [14,15,16], execution [14,15,16,17,18], information processing speed [9,14,16,18,19,20], working memory [14,15,17,18], and verbal memory [16,20,21,22,23]. Impaired cognition functions were associated with not only subcortical ischemic changes in the brain but also brain atrophy [14].…”

“…a difference of at least half a standard deviation (Cohen's d), in cognitive performance between target and reference groups is considered clinically or practically important for everyday functioning and independence [16], regardless of whether statistical significance is reached. However, most studies report only statistically significant differences in psychometric tests between diabetics and healthy control groups [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Moreover, without a standardized index or scale to compare between psychometric tests, it is difficult to gauge the extent of cognitive impairment in different studies.…”

Associations between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and accelerated cognitive decline are well established. However, the sensitivity of neuropsychological tests to detect early deficits in cognitively normal adults with T2DM is unknown. This review examined cognitive domains and specific neuropsychological tests that are impaired in T2DM, based on clinically significant differences (effect sizes >0.5) between T2DM and groups without T2DM. Nine cross-sectional studies were identified which reported means and standard deviations for individual tests. Tests of executive function, working memory and psychomotor and attentional functions were found to be impaired in T2DM. Impairments of executive function and choice reaction time may have consequences for everyday functioning, in particular the risk of falls in older adults. More research on cognitive deficits in dual-task situations and how they impact everyday functioning is needed; the Trail Making Task, Symbol Digit Modalities Test, Verbal Fluency Task and tests of reaction time and processing speed could be included as core components of test batteries in future intervention studies. They could also be assessed in newly diagnosed T2DM and used to monitor progressive deterioration of cognitive function and the efficacy of therapeutic interventions on cognitive function.

“…[3][4][5] The aim of this study was to prospectively determine the associations between inflammation, cerebral vasoregulation, and cognitive performance over a 2-year span in older adults with and without T2DM. We hypothesized that (1) inflammation and hyperglycemia are associated with impaired vasoregulation in the brain, and (2) impaired vasoregulation is associated with cognitive decline in T2DM.…”

Objective: The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the relationships between inflammation, cerebral vasoregulation, and cognitive decline in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) over a 2-year span.Methods: Sixty-five participants (aged 66 6 9.2 years, 35 with T2DM, 33 women) were enrolled for this 2-year prospective study. Continuous arterial spin labeling at 3-tesla MRI was used to measure global and regional cerebral perfusion and vasoreactivity. Neuropsychological measures were evaluated at the beginning and completion of the study. The associations between serum inflammatory markers, regional cerebral vasoreactivity, and cognitive functions were examined using least squares models.Results: After 2 years of follow-up, participants with T2DM had diminished global and regional cerebral vasoreactivity and a decline in multiple cognitive tasks compared with baseline (p , 0.0001-0.012). In the T2DM group, lower cerebral vasoreactivity was associated with a greater decrease in daily living activities score (r Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been recognized as an independent risk for development of cognitive impairment and dementia.1,2 Endothelial dysfunction and impaired cerebral vasoregulation associated with hyperglycemia and elevated proinflammatory cytokine levels have been linked to functional decline in T2DM.3-5 The aim of this study was to prospectively determine the associations between inflammation, cerebral vasoregulation, and cognitive performance over a 2-year span in older adults with and without T2DM. We hypothesized that (1) inflammation and hyperglycemia are associated with impaired vasoregulation in the brain, and (2) impaired vasoregulation is associated with cognitive decline in T2DM.
