THE ROLE OF COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENTS IN THE FORMATION OF THE PSYCHO-ORGANIC SYNDROME IN PATIENTS WITH DIABETIC POLYNEUROPATHY

Abstract

Cognitive impairments have been studied as the main component of the psycho-organic syndrome in patients with diabetic polyneuropathy. There was a significant decrease in memory, attention, and executive functions as the disease progressed. Diabetic polyneuropathy is one of the most common chronic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus and is a complex multifactorial pathological process affecting the peripheral, autonomic, and central nervous systems. In recent years, special attention has been paid to the study of the relationship between neurological, neurophysiological and psycho-organic disorders, which have a significant impact on the course of the disease, quality of life and social adaptation of patients.
