| Research Abstract |
Cognitive impairment can potentially affect diabetes self-care and adherence to medication, with consequent deterioration of glycemic control. In terms of management of T2DM, it is crucial to prevent the development of cognitive impairment at an early stage or halt its progression. In this regard, it is important to identify makers for early cognitive impairment in patients with T2DM. Recent studies have shown that olfactory dysfunction could be used as a predictor of cognitive impairment in the general population. The aim of the present study was to define the relation between olfactory function and cognition in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Among patients with T2DM aged more than 65 years with free of clinically-evident cognitive impairment,MCI was diagnosed in 24.4%, and dementia in 13.6%.Stepwise multivariate regression analysis identified OE test score, education level, HbA1c, and serum adiponectin as independent factors associated with MMSE score
