Abstract
Objective: We examine the patterns of cognitive functioning in individuals diagnosed with dementia, diabetes, and depression as compared with dementia plus diabetes, or dementia plus depression and healthy controls. Methods: 207 participants with dementia, 83 with Alzheimer芒�?�?s disease, 66 vascular dementia and 58 mixed dementia were included. All subjects underwent global neuropsychological assessment via the Mini-Mental State Examination, and assessment for depressive symptoms via the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. Diabetes diagnoses were confirmed by the medical examination Results:A mixed-effects repeated measures analysis of covariance indicated a significant difference in cognitive functioning between the study groups. Our results showed that patients with diagnosis of dementia and depression showed greater cognitive dysfunction compared to controls, but to a lesser degree in patients with comorbid dementia diabetes. Conclusions: These results suggest that dementia, when combined with depression or diabetes mellitus, adversely affects cognitive performance.Biography
