Diabetes can affect structure and function of brain in several aspects, but diabetic cognitive impairment is often ignored. The pathogenesis of diabetes associated cognitive impairment is complicated. Factors such as glucotoxicity, lipotoxicity, insulin resistance, hypoglycaemia and disturbance of Ca2 homeostasis may play important roles. Besides conventional diabetes therapy, new methods still need to be explored.

Cardiac arrest (CA) is a serious cardiac event, which has a high incidence and low survival rate at home and abroad. In order to predict the risk of CA in advance, a large number of studies have been conducted by relevant researchers. This paper mainly summarizes the characteristics and research status of the existing analysis and prediction of CA from three aspects: the risk prediction factors of CA, the evaluation index of risk prediction of CA and the early warning scoring system of CA. We hope it can help medical staff to understand the current progress in this field, and provide new ways and methods for predicting the risk of CA.
