Diabetes is associated with a high risk of developing dementia
Diabetes leads to the destruction of brain cells. A group of researchers from the U.S. Mayo clinic (Mayo Clinic) under the direction of Professor Roberts, Rosebud (Rosebud Roberts) stated that diabetes is one of the most common diseases in the world — leads to a decrease in volume of the brain. The most obvious cognitive impairment observed in patients aged 40 to 64 years.
In connection with the loss of brain cells, the problems begin with reaction, speed of thinking and memory.
The study involved 1437 diabetics, divided into groups by age up to 80 years 40 to 60 years. The first group of people was observed to moderate cognitive impairment, the second group consisted of people suffering from high blood pressure.
The result of the study showed that middle-aged people with diabetes, brain volume was smaller than in healthy people. In addition, people with diabetes was noted more cases of memory problems.
However, scientists reported that the relationship of diabetes with the problems of brain cells is not fully understood and requires further research.
