Résumé

There is an unclear association between type 2 diabetes and mild cognitive impairment in the elderly. Both diseases are more prevalent in the older adults compared to the younger counterpart. Some anti-diabetic drugs seem to influence positively the evolution of mild cognitive impairment. This retrospective study investigated the effect of vildagliptin, an inhibitor of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), on the cognitive functioning of elderly diabetic patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) documented at mini mental state examination (MMSE). We included 60 diabetic elderly people which were divided in 2 groups: Group A, 30 patients with HbA The two groups exhibited significantly different values in FPG (P < 0.05) and HbA Vildagliptin in addition to metformin resulted in the maintenance of MMSE score, showing a protecting role on cognitive functioning compared to the metformin only group.
