Diabetes can cause some complications, which bring great harm to patients. For example, diabetic eye disease, diabetic gangrene, etc., do you know that the memory of diabetic patients will decline at night?
Nojens and colleagues at the National Institute of public health and environment in the Netherlands tracked the health records and mental acuity scores of more than 2600 men and women aged 45 to 70 who participated in a large-scale survey of the impact of lifestyle on health.
This investigation confirmed the relationship between diabetes and brain dysfunction. At the end of the five-year period, although the overall degree of brain dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes is still very small, it is three times that of non patients. Even those with diabetes at the start of the study had brain decline twice as fast as non patients.
Compared with the healthy participants, the brain dysfunction of patients with long-term diabetes mellitus was the most serious, and the people who suffered from the disease in the middle of the survey were lighter than those with long-term diabetes.
