Glycaemic-Cognitive Association

The Spearman test found a statistically significant positive association between glycaemic control and cognitive function. The Kruskal-Wallis test did not find significant differences in glycaemic control across cognitive groups. The significant continuous association was not treated as causal evidence of cognitive decline. Better glycaemic control co-occurred with higher cognitive function scores. Stage 3 tested whether glycaemic control related to cognitive group status and cognitive function in the Ohio cognitive dataset. The Type 3 diabetes result motivates longitudinal modelling of metabolic control and cognitive trajectories.
