Abstract
BACKGROUND The link between diabetes and dementia risk is not well understood. This study evaluates the factors linking diabetes to dementia onset, providing guidance for preventing dementia in diabetic patients. METHODS This analysis utilized databases such as PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to review literature from January 31, 2012, to March 5, 2023. Articles were rigorously assessed using specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of the studies. Data analysis was performed with STATA 15.0. RESULTS The study analyzed 15 articles, covering 10,103,868 patients, with 8,821,516 diagnosed with diabetes. The meta-analysis reveals a substantial association between diabetes and an increased risk of dementia [RR: 1.59, 95%CI (1.40-1.80), P < 0.01, I²=96.4%]. A diabetes duration of less than five years is linked to a higher dementia risk [RR: 1.29, 95%CI (1.20-1.39), P < 0.01, I²=92.6%]. Additionally, hypoglycemia significantly raises dementia risk [RR: 1.56, 95%CI (1.13-2.16), P < 0.01, I²=51.5%]. Analyses of blood sugar control, glycated hemoglobin, and fasting blood sugar indicated no significant effects on the onset of dementia. CONCLUSION Diabetes notably increases dementia risk, particularly where diabetes duration is under five years or hypoglycemia is present. REGISTRATION The research protocol was registered with PROSPERO and assigned the registration number CRD42023394942.

Fasting glucose variability and risk of dementia in Parkinson's disease: a 9-year longitudinal follow-up study of a nationwide cohort. Front Aging Neurosci 2024; 15:1292524. [PMID: 38235038 PMCID: PMC10791804 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2023.1292524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Diabetes is associated with an increased risk of Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD); however, it is unknown whether this association is dependent on continuous hyperglycemia, hypoglycemic events, or glycemic variability. We aimed to investigate the relationship between visit-to-visit fasting glucose variability and PDD development in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service, we examined 9,264 patients aged ≥40 years with de novo Parkinson's disease (PD) who underwent ≥3 health examinations and were followed up until December 2019. Glucose variability was measured using the coefficient of variation, variability independent of the mean, and average real variability. Fine and Gray competing regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of glucose variability on incident PDD. Results During the 9.5-year follow-up period, 1,757 of 9,264 (19.0%) patients developed PDD. Patients with a higher visit-to-visit glucose variability had a higher risk of future PDD. In the multivariable adjusted model, patients with PD in the highest quartile (subdistribution hazard ratio [SHR] = 1.50, 95% CI 1.19 to 1.88), quartile 3 (SHR = 1.29, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.62), and quartile 2 (SHR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.63) were independently associated with a higher risk of PDD than those in the lowest quartile. Conclusion We highlighted the effect of long-term glucose variability on the development of PDD in patients with PD. Furthermore, our findings suggest that preventive measures for constant glucose control may be necessary to prevent PDD.

Abstract
The relationship between prediabetes and dementia remains controversial. We aimed to examine the association between cumulative exposure to impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and the risk of dementia in the general population. 1,463,066 middle-aged and elderly subjects who had had health examinations for four consecutive years were identified from a Korean nationwide population-based cohort database. IFG was defined as fasting blood glucose 100-125 mg/dL, and the risk of dementia-according to the number of IFG exposure (range 0-4)-was analyzed using the multivariable Cox proportional-hazards model. During the median 6.4 years of follow-up, 7614 cases of all-cause dementia, 5603 cases of Alzheimer's disease, and 1257 cases of vascular dementia occurred. There was a significant trend towards a higher risk of all-cause dementia (P for trend = 0.014) and Alzheimer's disease ( Pfor trend = 0.005) according to the cumulative exposure to IFG, but with a modest (approximately 7-14%) increase in the hazards. A significant stepwise increase in the risk of all-cause dementia and Alzheimer's disease was seen in non-obese subjects, whereas no significant association was observed in obese subjects. This study supports the association between prediabetes and incident dementia and emphasizes that even mild hyperglycemia should not be overlooked.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a metabolic disease reaching pandemic levels worldwide. In parallel, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD) are the two leading causes of dementia in an increasingly long-living Western society. Numerous epidemiological studies support the role of T2D as a risk factor for the development of dementia. However, few basic science studies have focused on the possible mechanisms involved in this relationship. On the other hand, this review of the literature also aims to explore the relationship between T2D, AD and VaD. The data found show that there are several alterations in the central nervous system that may be promoting the development of T2D. In addition, there are some mechanisms by which T2D may contribute to the development of neurodegenerative diseases such as AD or VaD.

[PMID: 37196708 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2023.110721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
AIMS We examine cumulative effect of long-term glycemic exposure in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on the development of dementia. METHODS The study involved 20,487 records of patients with T2DM identified in the electronic medical record at Severance Hospital, Korea. Cumulative HbA1c (AUCHbA1c) and mean HbA1c over time (HbA1cavg) as measures of long-term glycemic exposure were compared for the development of dementia and the time to dementia. RESULTS AUCHbA1c and HbA1cavg were significantly higher in patients who later developed dementia than in those who did not dementia (AUCHbA1c: 56.2 ± 26.4 vs. 52.1 ± 26.1 %*Year; HbA1cavg: 7.0 ± 1.0 vs. 7.3 ± 1.0 %). Odds ratio of dementia increased when HbA1cavg was 7.2% (55 mmol/mol) or above, and when AUCHbA1c was 42 %*Year (e.g., HbA1c 7.0% maintained for 6 years) or above. Among those who developed dementia, as HbA1cavg increased, the time to dementia onset decreased (β = -380.6 days, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -416.2 to -345.0). CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate poorly controlled T2DM was associated with an increased risk of developing dementia, as measured by AUCHbA1c and HbA1cavg. Higher cumulative glycemic exposure may lead to developing dementia in a shorter time.

Clin Nurs Res 2023; 32:249-255.

Abstract
Latinx adults with both cognitive dysfunction and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are significantly more likely than Latinx adults with diabetes alone to have complications such as cardiovascular disease. Glucose variability may be a risk for dementia, but the course of glucose variability in the time before a dementia diagnosis for Latinx adults with T2DM has not been examined. We used a 10-year retrospective cohort of medical records of Latinx patients with T2DM who had at least one use of a continuous glucose monitor. The objective was to examine how glucose variability was associated with future dementia diagnoses. A total of 116 charts were included. Mean of daily differences and mean amplitude of glycemic excursions were more strongly associated with dementia diagnoses than other variability indices (p < .01). Understanding the relationships between cognitive function, glucose variability, and barriers to health care can translate into improved interventions to enhance diabetes care.
