Relation of diabetes to mild cognitive impairment. (2007, positive): “We previously demonstrated that diabetes is associated with an increased risk of AD and dementia.(2,17) Thus, we hypothesized that diabetes is also related to a higher risk of MCI, particularly amnestic MCI.”
Epidemiology of Alzheimer Disease (2012, neutral): “The presence of type II diabetes is associated with a approximately twofold increased risk of AD (risk ratios vary between 1.5 and 4.0; Luchsinger et al. 2001; Peila et al. 2002; Farris et al. 2003; Luchsinger et al. 2004a).”
