Abstract
Mild cognitive dysfunction has been identified in children and adults with type 1
diabetes, but most studies have failed to find a relationship between severe hypoglycemia
and cognition, despite reports of such associations in older adults with type 2 diabetes.
Focusing on older adults with type 1 diabetes, we examined the associations between
cognitive performance and recent episodes of severe hypoglycemia, retinal vessel diameters
and the presence of micro- and macrovascular complications.
