Cognitive changes in people with diabetes with lower extremity complications compared to people with diabetes without lower extremity complications: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recent evidence suggests that diabetes-related lower-extremity complications (DRLECs) may be associated with cognitive changes in people with diabetes. However, existing literature has produced inconsistent findings, and no systematic reviews have been conducted to investigate whether DRLECs impact the cognition of people with diabetes. This systematic review evaluated existing studies that investigated cognition in people with diabetes with DRLECs and without DRLECs.

Method

Seven databases; MEDLINE, PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane, PsycINFO and Web of Science were searched from inception until 22/8/2022 for studies that compared cognition in people with diabetes with and without DRLECs. Results were independently screened for eligibility and assessed for methodo
