Cognitive disengagement syndrome in children with type 1 diabetes: important implications for clinical outcomes.
Acta Diabetologica 2023 September 7
AIMS: Children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are prone to a variety of psychiatric disorders, however, to date, no study has examined cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) in children with T1D. The present study aimed to evaluate the frequency of CDS symptoms in children with T1D and whether it is related to glycemic control.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 74 children with T1D and 88 healthy (control) children, aged 8-14 years. All children were evaluated through a semi-structured psychiatric interview, the Kent-EGY test, porteus maze test, stroop test TBAG form, Barkley child attention scale, and Conners' parent rating scale-revised-short form.
RESULT: Children with T1D had considerably higher rates of elevated CDS symptoms than control children (35.1% vs. 10.2%, p < 0.001). Children with T1D performed poorly on attention and cognitive tests. High levels of CDS symptomatology were strongly associated with earlier diabetes onset age, longer disease duration, a higher percentage of diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis, higher HbA1c levels, and higher daily insulin dosages. Also, T1D patients with elevated CDS symptoms had lower IQ and attention scores and worse cognitive function performance compared to participants with low levels of CDS symptomatology.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated CDS symptoms are significantly higher in children with T1D and are associated with poorer diabetes control. The routine psychiatric examination of children with T1D should also include a screening for CDS, particularly in patients with poor glycemic control.
