Article Synopsis
- Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is linked to faster cognitive decline and conditions like Alzheimer's, especially in patients with metabolic syndrome, which is less studied.
- A study involving 47 T2D adults showed significant cognitive impairments: 13% struggled with memory, 50% with attention, and 35% with executive functions.
- Longer diabetes duration and higher levels of very low density lipoprotein were associated with poorer cognitive performance, indicating high risks for cognitive issues in T2D patients with metabolic syndrome.
