The Relationship

Relevance. Till now there is no clear clinical trial understanding of the relationship between hypertension (AH) and the patient's cognitive function. Objective: the investigation of changes in cognitive function in patients with hypertension with concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Materials and methods. 215 people were examined: Group I (n = 131) – stage II hypertensive disease (HD); Group II (n = 46) – HD, combined with diabetes mellitus2; Group III, control (n = 38) – without a diagnosis of HD and diabetes mellitus2. All examined blood pressure (BP), echocardiogram. Clinical complaints, anamnestic data, and neuropsychiatric testing data were used to diagnose moderate cognitive impairment (MCI). Used modified diagnostic criteria J. Touchon, R. Petersen. To assess cognitive function used: Short scale of assessment of mental state (Mini-Mental State Examination - MMSE); Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB); clock drawing test; test for literal and categorical associations; Schulte tables; the Global Deterioration Scale (GDS) and the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR). Result. In patients with HD, the most significant risk factors for moderate cognitive impairment are hypercholesterolemia and overweight (with OR 1.8), obesity (OR 1.6), the presence of concomitant diabetes mellitus2, which, especially in overweight, significantly impairs cognitive function ( OR 2.56). Deterioration of cognitive function correlates with the duration of HD, cholesterol levels. Concomitant diabetes mellitus2 in patients with HD creates a statistically significant additional negative effect on the results of cognitive function. In patients with HD with a distorted daily blood pressure profile, the neurodynamic component of cognitive function is first of all affected - conceptualization, repetition, the reaction of choice. The relationship between cognitive function and daily monitoring of blood pressure often have a U-shaped relationship, where the maximum indicators of cognitive function are at the level of the optimal recommended blood pressure figures (130-139 mm Hg for SBP, and 75-85 mm Hg for DBP, and the daily index within 10%). Conclusions. There is a dependence on changes in cognitive function on the presence of risk factors and signs of subclinical damage to target organs. The nonlinear U-shaped character of the relationship between the average daily, average night, and average daily blood pressure and the results of screening tests and scales for assessing cognitive function are shown.

This study investigates risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus in a population of children in public schools, Fortaleza, CE, Brazil. A total of 727 children aged 6 to 11 years old from 12 schools were evaluated between March and June 2008. A form addressing socio-demographic data, body mass index, blood pressure, capillary blood glucose and waist circumference was applied. A total of 54.1% of the children were female, 21.7% were overweight, 6.6% were obese, 27% had central obesity, 6.2% showed altered capillary glucose, and 17% high blood pressure. In relation to risk factors, 53.4% presented no risk factors; 24.3% had at least one factor and 18.8% two risk factors. Nurses can intervene in schools through educational health programs encouraging the adoption of healthy habits and identifying children at risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract The presence of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is a marker of endothelial dysfunction and also one of the criteria for diagnosing diabetic kidney disease. The present study aimed to identify associations between cardiovascular risk factors and renal albumin excretion in a group of 218 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. HbA1c values, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure were statistically significantly higher in patients with microalbuinuria or macroalbuminuria compared to patients with normoalbuminuria (p <0.01). We identified a statistically significant positive association between uric acid values and albuminuria, respectively 25- (OH)2 vitamin D3 deficiency and microalbuminuria (p <0.01).

Background/Objective: The association between hypertension, diabetes, and worse cognitive function has been reported to be stronger in groups with low levels of education. Using data from a cross-sectional community survey of Korean elders, we sought to investigate this within a sample with relative cognitive impairment. Methods: The sample consisted of 341 participants with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) (Korean version) scores of 24/30 or below. Previous diagnoses were ascertained and participants were examined for resting blood pressure and nonfasting blood glucose and cholesterol. Results: After adjustment for age, occupation, physical dependence, and cholesterol levels, worse cognitive function (MMSE score < 21) within the sample was associated with raised systolic blood pressure, raised glucose levels, and a previous diagnosis of diabetes. These associations were significant only in participants with no formal education. In this group the adjusted odds ratios for worse cognitive function were 1.18 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-1.34) for each 10 mmHg increase in systolic blood pressure and 3.47 (1.14-10.6) for a previous diagnosis of diabetes. Odds ratios for the group with previous education were 0.99 (0.81-1.21) and 1.82 (0.48-6.92), respectively. Conclusion: The association between risk factors for cerebrovascular disease and cognitive impairment appears to be particularly strong in people with lower educational attainment.
