Sumario: | OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical effects of insulin resistance (IR) in the development of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in elderly adults with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: Seventy-eight patients with T2DM were recruited and divided into MCI group (<26, n=48) and normal group (≥26, n=30) according to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score. The fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbA1c, and fasting plasma C-peptide (FPC) were examined and compared between the two groups. The Pancreatic islets function (HOMA-islet) and Insulin Resistance Index (HOMA-IR) were also calculated for the two groups. Using the HOMA-IR and HOMA-islet as the reference, the predicted values for MCI in T2DM patients were calculated by sensitivity, specificity and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS: The MoCA scores were statistically different between the MCI and control groups (23.79±1.15 vs 28.50±1.01, p<0.05). The serum FPG and FPC were 10.38±2.36 mmol/L and 0.79±0.34 ng/mL in the MCI group which were significant different from those of the control group (8.96±2.55 mmol/L and 1.04±0.38 ng/mL; p<0.05). The HOMA-IR and HOMA-islet were 10.08±2.64 and 94.67±29.12 for the MCI group and 8.16±2.46 and 130.30±38.43 for the control group; both were statistically different (p<0.05). The serum HbA1c was 11.02±2.59% and 9.37±2.00% for the MCI and control groups (significantly different with p<0.5). A significant positive correlation was found between MoCA score and HOMA-islet (rpearson=0.44; p<0.001). A significant negative correlation existed between MoCA score and serum HbA1c (r=-0.25; p=0.03). The areas under the ROC curve were 0.70 (0.57~0.82), 0.69 (0.57~0.81), 0.69 (0.57~0.80), 0.72 (0.60~0.84), 0.72 (0.60~0.84) and 0.76 (0.65~0.88) respectively for FPG, FPC, HbA1c, HOMA-IR and HOMA-islet. CONCLUSION: Insulin resistance is a risk factor for mild cognitive impairment and can be a biomarker for prediction of MCI in patients with T2DM. |
