Abstract in brief

  • The study analyzed data from 28 prospective observational studies to examine how diabetes mellitus influences the risk of developing all types of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD).
  • The pooled results indicated that individuals with diabetes have a 73% higher risk of all-cause dementia, a 56% higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease, and a 127% higher risk of vascular dementia compared to those without diabetes.
  • Sensitivity and subgroup analyses confirmed the robustness of these findings, suggesting that the increased risk is consistent regardless of study quality or specific study characteristics.
