Huang et al. (2021) conducted a cross-sectional in Diabetes (n=5,263). Depression, Hispanic ethnicity, male sex, and arthritis vs. Absence of these risk factors was evaluated on Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) (OR 3.85, p=<.001). Among adults with diabetes, depression (OR 3.85), Hispanic ethnicity (OR 2.21), male sex (OR 1.47), and arthritis (OR 1.43) were significantly associated with subjective cognitive decline.
