Diabetes Melitus merupakan penyakit yang bisa menyebabkan resiko gangguan kognitif melalui gangguan pada pembuluh darah termasuk diantaranya pembuluh darah di otak. Lama menderita DM dan kadar glukosa darah akan mempengaruhi fungsi kognitif penderita DM. Skrining fungsi kognitif diperlukan untuk pencegahan komplikasi seperti penyakit alzheimer. Tujuan penelitian ini menganalisis  hubungan lama terdiagnosa DM, Kadar Glukosa Darah dengan fungsi kognitif penderita DM Tipe 2 di Jawa Timur. Metode penelitian ini deskriptif observasional dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Skrining fungsi kognitif dengan Montreal Cognitive Assessment – versi Indonesia (MoCA – INA) dan glukometer untuk pengukuran kadar glukosa darah puasa (GDP) dan glukosa darah 2 jam PP(GD2JPP). Hasil uji chi square pada skor uji kognitif menggunakan MoCA dengan lama terdiagnosa DM tidak mempunyai hubungan (p=0,858). Demikian juga nilai chi square pada  skor uji kognitif  dengan kadar GDP  dan GD2JPP menunjukkan tidak ada hubungan (p=0,376 dan p=0,144). Sedangkan uji korelasi menunjukkan nilai yang signifikan untuk GDP2JPP ( p=0,015) dan adanya nilai koefisien korelasi negatif (-0,191).. Kesimpulan terdapat korelasi antara GD2JPP dengan penurunan fungsi kognitif. Semakin tinggi nilai GD2JPP maka semakin terganggu fungsi kognitif penderita DM tipe 2.Kata kunci:  Lama terdiagnosa DM, Kadar glukosa darah, fungsi kognitif, MoCA Diabetes Mellitus is a disease that can cause the risk of cognitive impairment through disorders of the blood vessels including blood vessels in the brain. Long-suffering from DM and blood glucose levels affect the cognitive function of patients with DM. Cognitive function screening is necessary for the prevention of complications such as Alzheimer's disease. The purpose of this study to analyze the relationship diagnosed DM, Blood Glucose Level with cognitive function of Type 2 DM patients in East Java. This research method is descriptive observational with a cross-sectional approach. Screening for cognitive function with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment - Indonesian version (MoCA - INA) and glucometer for fasting glucose (GDP) and blood glucose 2 hours PP (GD2JPP). Chi-square test results in cognitive test scores using MoCA with long diagnosed DM did not have a relationship (p = 0.858). Likewise, the chi-square value in the cognitive test scores with GDP and GD2JPP levels showed no relationship (p = 0.376 and p = 0.144). While the correlation test showed a significant value for GDP2JPP (p = 0.015) and the value of negative correlation coefficient (-0.191). Conclusion there is a correlation between GD2JPP with decreased cognitive function. The higher the GD2JPP value the more disturbed the cognitive function of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Keywords: Duration of diabetes, glucose level, cognitive function, MoCA

Abstract: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) type 2 is one of the chronic disease which related to the increased risk of cognitive decline. Uncontrolled blood glucose levels and duration of DM affect the pathophysiology of the occurrence of cognitive function disruption to DM type 2 subject. Uncontrolled blood glucose levels is HbA1c levels > 7% and cognitive function measured by using Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). The objective of this research is to find out the relation between an uncontrolled blood glucose levels and duration of DM to cognitive function from DM type 2 subject. Methods: This research is descriptive analytic with cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used was consecutive sampling. Result: The discoveries from all the 36 samples are a mean age of 55.2; length of sustaining DM 9.0; HbA1c 9.9; and MMSE score 24.7. Pearson correlation test results obtained the relation of HbA1c with MMSE score (p=0,215 ; r=-0,212) and the relation of the duration of sustaining DM with MMSE score (p=0,237 ; r=-0,202). Conclusion: There is a negative connection between uncontrolled blood sugar level and the duration of sustaining DM with cognitive function but statistically both of them are not significant to the DM type 2 subject.Keywords: diabetes mellitus, HbA1c, length of sustaining DM, cognitive function.Abstrak: Diabetes Melitus (DM) tipe 2 adalah salah satu penyakit kronis yang berhubungan dengan peningkatan risiko penurunan kognitif.

Background: The Long Life Family Study (LLFS) is a family based, prospective study of healthy aging and familial longevity. The study includes two assessments of cognitive function that were administered approximately 8 years apart. Objective: To test whether APOE genotype is associated with change of cognitive function in older adults. Methods: We used Bayesian hierarchical models to test the association between APOE alleles and change of cognitive function. Six longitudinally collected neuropsychological test scores were modelled as a function of age at enrollment, follow-up time, gender, education, field center, birth cohort indicator (≤1935, or >1935), and the number of copies of ɛ2 or ɛ4 alleles. Results: Out of 4,587 eligible participants, 2,064 were male (45.0%), and age at enrollment ranged from 25 to 110 years, with mean of 70.85 years (SD: 15.75). We detected a significant cross-sectional effect of the APOE ɛ4 allele on Logical Memory. Participants carrying at least one copy of the ɛ4 allele had lower scores in both immediate (–0.31 points, 95% CI: –0.57, –0.05) and delayed (–0.37 points, 95% CI: –0.64, –0.10) recall comparing to non-ɛ4 allele carriers. We did not detect any significant longitudinal effect of the ɛ4 allele. There was no cross-sectional or longitudinal effect of the ɛ2 allele. Conclusion: The APOE ɛ4 allele was identified as a risk factor for poorer episodic memory in older adults, while the APOE ɛ2 allele was not significantly associated with any of the cognitive test scores.

Background: Hyperglycemia is one of the most complications of corticosteroid and asparaginase during induction phase of chemotherapy in children suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This study was carried out to evaluate the incidence of hyperglycemia and associated risk factors during chemotherapy induction phase at Amirkola Children's Hospital. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional (retrospective) study, 150 children (mean age: 79.16±42.68 months) with ALL were evaluated (2000- 2011). Hyperglycemia was described as random blood glucose level more than 200mg/dl in patients less than 2 years old. In patients older than 2 years, fasting blood glucose level more than 110-125 mg/dl was considered as impaired glucose level and fasting blood glucose level more than 126 mg/dl was defined as diabetes mellitus. The data were analyzed using SPSS (version 18) and running chi square test, pearson Ccorrelation, and logistic regression. P-values less than0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Out of 150 children with ALL, 21 (14%) of them had hyperglycemia, but none of them had diabetic ketoacidosis. Hyperglycemia was significantly associated with gender (P=0.014) and age. (P=0.000) which was more likely in patients older than 10 years. The incidence of hyperglycemia was also related to BMI (P=0.000). Relapse rate for ALL was 14.7%, which was not significantly associated with hyperglycemia. Conclusion: Hyperglycemia was common and transient during induction phase of chemotherapy and it was correlated with age, sex, and weight.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder with multifactorial etiology. Nowadays, DM prevalence in Indonesia is ranked 5th in the world, compared to IDF data in 2013 which is ranked 7th in the world with 7.6 million people. The main key in the management of type 2 diabetes is the proper diet, it results in normal glucose tolerance. The scientists found that an increase in blood glucose levels can be estimated from foods containing several types of food portion with different glycemic indexes. This study aims to know at the relationship between high glycemic index foods consumption and blood glucose of type 2 diabetes patient. Studies using analytical research method with cross-sectional study design which is consist of 30 respondents. The result showed that high glycemic index foods consumption with high fasting blood sugar levels as many as 11 people (10.5%), the results of the chi-square analysis showed the value of p = 0.69 (> 0.05). Besides, high glycemic index with high postprandial glucose level as many as 13 people (11.0%), the results of the analysis showed p = 0.09 (> 0.05) and respectively, all subjects had high random glucose levels at 30 people ( 100%) and most of the people (15) with high and medium glycemic index (50%). There is no correlation between high glycemic index foods consumption with a blood glucose of type 2 diabetes patient in the Diabetes Centre, Ternate City.Diabetes Melitus merupakan kelainan metabolik dengan etiologi multifactorial. Prevalensi DM di Indonesia saat ini menempati peringkat ke-5 di dunia, dibandingkan data IDF tahun 2013 yang menempati peringkat ke-7 di dunia dengan 7,6 juta orang. Kunci pokok dalam penatalaksanaan diabetes tipe 2 adalah diet  yang benar maka toleransi glukosa dapat menjadi normal. Para ilmuwan menemukan bahwa terjadinya kenaikan kadar glukosa darah dapat diperkirakan dari makanan yang mengandung beberapa jenis pangan dengan indeks glikemik yang berbeda. Penelitian ini bertujuan  untuk melihat hubungan konsumsi jenis pangan yang mengandung indeks glikemik tinggi dengan kadar gula darah pasien DM tipe2. Metode penelitian analitik dengan desain cross sectional study dengan 30 responden. Konsumsi jenis pangan yang mengandung indeks glikemik tinggi dengan kadar gula darah puasa tinggi sebanyak 11 orang (10,5%), hasil analisis chi-square menunjukkan nilai p=0,69 (>0,05). Indeks glikemik tinggi dengan kadar gula darah 2 Jam Post Prandial tinggi sebanyak 13 orang (11,0%), hasil analisis menunjukkan nilai p=0,09 (>0,05) dan seluruh subyek memiliki kadar gula darah sewaktu tinggi yaitu 30 orang (100%) dengan indeks glikemik tinggi dan sedang masing-masing 15 orang (50%). Tidak ada hubungan konsumsi jenis pangan yang mengandung indeks gliemik tinggi dengan kadar gula darah pasien DM tipe 2 di Diabetes Center Kota Ternate.

Abstract Background Screening for cognitive impairment (CI) is often hampered by lack of consensus as to which screening instrument to use. The aim is to assess the consistence and applicability of different CI screening tools. Method In a cross-sectional study from October 2017 to September 2018 in 7 communities in Shanghai, China, elder (≧60) residential volunteers with no history of major cardiovascular diseases, cancers and other comorbidities known to affect cognitive functions were recruited. The participants underwent tests with 7 cognitive function screening instruments. Multivariate linear regressions were performed to test correlations between demographic characteristics, including gender, age, education, and marital status, with cognitive test scores. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score adjusted according to the correlation coefficients was used to detect CI with a cutoff of 24. Other cognitive function scores were compared between participants with and without CI. In addition, Pearson’s correlation test was used to detect association between different test scores. Results 172 participants with relatively low education levels were included. Age and education showed significant association with cognitive test scores. Using adjusted MMSE, 39.6% of participants were identified with CI, while the percentage was 87.2% when adjusted Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) with cutoff of 26 was used. Analysis of “abnormal” test scores showed that MMSE had the highest percentage of valid data (98.8%). MoCA and Isaacs test of Verbal Fluency (VF) score had correlation with most the other scores, while MMSE only significantly associated with VF and MoCA. Conclusions MMSE may still present the most applicable tools for quick screen of cognitive functions, especially when environmental conditions may interfere with participants’ attention.
