Abstract:
Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA, Beijing Version) was chosen as cognition assessment implement. 63 patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) were chosen to form a research group, and 27 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and normal cognitive function served as a control group. It was found that atherosclerosis played an important role in the pathogenesis of MCI in type 2diabetes, therefore, early prevention and management of atherosclerosis may help to improve the cognitive function.
