Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder marked by persistent hyperglycemia, which significantly impacts vascular health. This review comprehensively analyzes the neurovascular complications associated with DM, focusing on retinal and brain lesions. categorized into type 1 2 gestational each presenting unique challenges risks. The condition accelerates damage through mechanisms such as endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress, leading to severe microvascular complications. Diabetic retinopathy primary concern, its progression from non-proliferative proliferative stages potentially resulting in vision loss. Concurrently, diabetes contributes brain, increasing risk of cognitive decline cerebrovascular events. examines pathophysiological underlying these complications, evaluates current diagnostic management strategies, highlights recent advancements imaging technologies therapeutic approaches. Integrating insights crucial for improving early detection, treatment, diabetes-related issues. Future research should focus innovative preventive measures interventions mitigate long-term impact By enhancing our understanding complex interactions, this aims contribute better clinical practices improved patient outcomes care.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), including dulaglutide, liraglutide, semaglutide, and exenatide, are effective treatments for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) obesity. These agents mimic the action of endogenous incretin glucagon-like (GLP-1) by enhancing insulin secretion, inhibiting glucagon release, promoting weight loss through appetite suppression. GLP-1RAs have recently been suggested to neuroprotective effects, suggesting their potential as treatment neurodegenerative disorders, such Alzheimer’s disease (AD). AD T2DM share several common pathophysiological mechanisms, resistance, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction. shared mechanisms suggest that therapeutic targeting metabolic dysfunction may also be beneficial conditions.

Background/Objectives: Dementia associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) has been well documented in the literature, but studies utilizing early screening tools to target populations mild cognitive dysfunction remain limited. This study aimed investigate decline by studying relationships between “Ascertain 8” (AD8) questionnaire scores and glycemic control, lipid profiles, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), complications of diabetes. Methods: case–control, cross-sectional, observational was conducted at a medical center an affiliated regional hospital southern Taiwan from 30 June 2021 2023. Patients diagnosed type 2 aged ≥40 years were recruited. Their past history, biochemical data, AD8 score collected same time. Results: The patients glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels ≥7% had higher risk impairment than those HbA1c <7% (p < 0.001). participants whose eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 mean compared ≥60 = 0.008). history peripheral artery disease diabetic neuropathy also 0.001 p 0.017, respectively).
