What does this research mean for the field?

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is more sensitive than the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) in detecting mild cognitive impairment (MCI) among inpatients with type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Novelty: ClaimNovelty.NOVEL_FINDING. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.NEUTRAL.

What question did this study set out to answer?

Implication

Cross-sectional study compares cognitive impairment assessment tools in T2DM inpatients, suggesting potential intervention targets.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate differences in mild cognitive impairment profiles in T2DM inpatients using MMSE and MoCA assessments.
Conducted a cross-sectional study in a hospital setting among T2DM inpatients.
Collected demographic and clinical data through questionnaires and interviews.
Used MMSE and MoCA to identify mild cognitive impairment across participants.
Applied multivariate logistic regression to analyze factors associated with MCI.
Prevalence of MCI detected was 18.4% by MMSE and 51.9% by MoCA.
Found fair agreement between MMSE and MoCA with a kappa value of 0.287.
Age and diabetic nephropathy associated with MCI in both assessments.
MoCA proved to be more sensitive than MMSE for detecting MCI.
