Abstract

Objectives: To assess whether T2D subgroups are associated with MCI/dementia, and whether the Action for Health in Diabetes (Look AHEAD) intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) differs in prevention of MCI/dementia by T2D subgroup. Methods: Included 3760 participants (73% of original cohort after death and attrition) with T2D and overweight/obesity randomized to years of ILI or diabetes support and education. We characterized T2D subgroups at randomization using k-means clustering methods and data on age of T2D diagnosis, BMI, waist circumference, and HbA1c. We estimated marginal probabilities for prevalent MCI/dementia 10-13 years post-randomization by T2D subgroup with adjustment for cohort attrition and covariates (Table) and assessed for differential effects of ILI on MCI/dementia by T2D subgroup. Results: T2D subgroups were characterized by (1) older and (2) younger age at T2D onset, (3) high HbA1c, and (4) severe obesity (Table) . Prevalence of MCI/dementia was 8.4% and differed by T2D subgroup. After adjustment, rate of MCI/dementia was highest for the severe obesity and lowest for the younger onset subgroups. There were no differences in MCI/dementia rates between intervention arms for any T2D subgroup (interaction p-value=0.84) . Conclusions: T2D subgroups differ in rate of MCI/dementia, with the highest rate for a subgroup of participants with severe obesity. Lifestyle intervention did not modify rate of MCI/dementia in any T2D subgroup. Disclosure M.Bancks: None. J.Lovato: None. A.Balasubramanyam: None. M.Coday: None. K.C.Johnson: None.
