Abstract
To study predictors of moderate cognitive disorders (MCD) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). The study included 54 men with CPD andDM2 (mean age 56.8 ± 4.5 years). Standard medical examination was supplemented by the assessment of cognitive status, characteristics of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Factors allegedly influencing MCD development included the patients' age, education level, stenosis of carotid arteries, LV ejection fraction, arterial hypertension, insulin and HbAlc levels, HOMA and QUICKI indices, lipid metabolism, concentrations of total, HDL and LDL cholesterol, fructosamine, triglycerides, severity of coronary lesions (Syntax scale), trait and state anxiety. Fructosamine level and HOMA index were the most important characteristics responsible for MCD in patients with CPD and DM2. The data obtained demonstrate the significance of fructosamine level and HOMA index in the development of MCD in patients with CPD and DM2.
