Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study included diabetic patients who were referred to outpatient diabetic clinics. We assessed the association between mild hypoglycemia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in Japanese diabetic patients. Presence or absence of mild hypoglycemia was not associated with MCI, as assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Similarly, frequency of mild hypoglycemia was not associated with mild cognitive impairment.Additionally, we assessed the association between lifestyle and MCI in Japanese diabetic patients. Current smoking, especially current smoking for which cumulative lifetime exposure was high, was associated with MCI, as assessed using the MMSE.
