Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is currently a major public health problem in the world. International Diabetes Federation (IDF) stated that in 2021 around 537 million people will suffer from diabetes, it is estimated that this will increase to 643 million in 2030 and 783 million in 2045. Impaired cognitive function is one of the complications that can occur in patients with diabetes mellitus. Impaired cognitive function in patients with diabetes mellitus can cause a decrease in the function of the patient’s quality of life. Examination of cognitive function using the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). This research activity was carried out with the aim of early detecting the presence or absence of impaired cognitive function in patients at the Gatak Sukoharjo Health Center, Central Java. The subjects of this study were 65 prolanis participants at the Gatak Sukoharjo Health Center, Central Java, consisting of 54 (83.1%) women and 11 (16.9%) men with an average age of 62 years, both women and men. This research is descriptive analytic with cross sectional approach. The sampling technique used is using total sampling. Of these patients, the average results of fasting blood sugar were obtained 192.62, waist circumference 92.25 and MMSE score 25.54. The results of the Chi-square correlation test showed a relationship between fasting blood sugar and cognitive function (p = 0.971) and waist circumference and cognitive function (p = 0.598). In conclusion, this study shows that there is no relationship between fasting blood sugar and cognitive function and waist circumference with cognitive function. The need for a wider number of subjects for this research in order to get even better results.
