Diabetes May Speed Up Cognitive Decline Over Time,

“Diabetes may speed up cognitive decline over time,” researchers found. Specifically, “both prediabetes (-0.012 SD/year, 95% CI -0.022 to -0.002) and diabetes (-0.031 SD/year, -0.046 to -0.015) were tied to a faster rate of global cognitive decline over time when compared with people with normoglycemia,” the study revealed. What’s more, “those with prediabetes and diabetes also showed a similarly fast trend of cognitive decline versus those with normoglycemia, as reported in memory, executive function, and orientation cognitive tests.” https://www.medpagetoday.com/endocrinology/diabetes/70764
