Abstract

The prevalence of diabetes is increasing around the world so much so that more than 15 million people are with this disease, and this figure is expected to increase to 300 million people in 2025 due to obesity and the immobility lifestyle. According to the latest research, in addition to complications such as heart disease and kidney failure, diabetes is likely to reduce mental power and increase the loss of cognitive functioning. The aim of present study was to determine the impact of diabetes on cognitive functioning. Method: This study was a causal-comparative research. For the purpose of the study, a group consisting of 50 individuals including patients with type 2 diabetes and a group consisting of 50 healthy individuals aged between 25 and 65 were selected by two-step random cluster method. In this study Wechsler memory scale-revised test were used. Descriptive statistics and ANOVA were performed using SPSS-20 software. Results: The results of this study showed that there was a significant difference between the scores of Wechsler memory of patients with type2 diabetes and control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that type2 diabetes may cause loss of cognitive functioning. © 2014 AENSI Publisher All rights reserved.
