Abstract
Objective:
Individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) have increased risk for cognitive dysfunction and high rates of sleep disturbance. Despite associations between glycemia and cognitive performance using cross-sectional and experimental methods few studies have evaluated this relationship in a naturalistic setting, or the impact of nocturnal versus daytime hypoglycemia. Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) may provide insight into the dynamic associations between cognition, affective, and physiological states. The current study couples EMA data with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) to examine the within-person impact of nocturnal glycemia on next day cognitive performance in adults with T1D. Due to high rates of sleep disturbance and emotional distress in people with T1D, the potential impacts of sleep characteristics and negative affect were also evaluated.
Methods:
This pilot study utilized EMA in 18 adults with T1D to examine the impact of glycemic excursions, measured using CGM, on cognitive performance, measured via mobile cognitive assessment using the TestMyBrain platform. Multilevel modeling was used to test the within-person effects of nocturnal hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia on next day cognition.
Results:
Results indicated that increases in nocturnal hypoglycemia were associated with slower next day processing speed. This association was not significantly attenuated by negative affect, sleepiness, or sleep quality.
Conclusions:
These results, while preliminary due to small sample size, showcase the power of intensive longitudinal designs using ambulatory cognitive assessment to uncover novel determinants of cognitive fluctuation in real world settings, an approach that may be utilized in other populations. Findings suggest reducing nocturnal hypoglycemia may improve cognition in adults with T1D.

Introduction
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic medical condition caused by autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, resulting in the need for exogenous insulin to treat elevated blood glucose levels (i.e., hyperglycemia). It is estimated that about 8.4 million individuals worldwide have T1D, with onset at any age (Gregory et al., 2022). Chronic hyperglycemia is associated with end-organ damage in the form of microvascular and macrovascular complications, while acute complications include diabetic ketoacidosis (Melendez et al., 2010; Klein 1995; Leske et al., 2005) and hypoglycemia. Severe hypoglycemia can lead to confusion, loss of consciousness and even death (Sayed 2022; Seaquist et al., 2013).
Cognitive impairment and decline in adults with T1D have been linked to glycemic factors (Jacobson et al., 2021; Chaytor et al., 2019; Li et al., 2017; Cox et al., 1993). In a 32-year follow-up of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) cohort (see Nathan, 2014 for a description of this cohort), significant within-person declines in memory, as well as psychomotor and mental efficiency were observed compared to baseline cognitive assessment, even after controlling for age. Findings demonstrated that higher hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, elevated systolic blood pressure and more episodes of severe hypoglycemia were associated with greater odds of decline in psychomotor and mental efficiency (Jacobson et al., 2021). Further, cross-sectional and brain imaging studies examining cognition in adults with longstanding T1D have demonstrated diminished performance on a variety of cognitive tasks, with information processing speed and executive functioning most commonly impacted compared to baseline cognitive performance as well as compared to controls (Shalimova et al., 2019; Broadley et al., 2017; Tonoli et al., 2014; van Duinkerken et al., 2014; McCrimmon et al., 2012; Wessels et al., 2007; Brands et al., 2005).
While this research has contributed to our understanding of cognitive functioning in adults with T1D in the long-term, less is known about the acute effects of glycemic fluctuations on cognition. Research utilizing hyperinsulinemic-hypoglycemic clamp methodology (controlled insulin and glucose infusions to achieve steady state glucose levels in the hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic range) shows further evidence for acute cognitive deficits associated with hypoglycemia in several domains, including cognitive flexibility, attention, language processing, and processing speed (Allen et al., 2015; Verhulst et al., 2022; Holmes et al., 1983; Graveling et al., 2013; Ewing et al., 1998; McAulay et al., 2006). Clamp studies examining the effects of hyperglycemia on cognition have yielded mixed results, with some reporting that hyperglycemia has no immediate effect on cognitive functioning (Draelos et al., 1995) whereas others have reported that hyperglycemia is associated with slower performance across multiple tasks (Cox et al., 2005). While useful in terms of the ability to study the acute effects of glucose on cognition in a controlled manner, clamp studies lack generalizability. In real world environments, glucose levels are rarely stable for extended periods of time, as people with T1D have varying levels of physical activity, frequently monitor their blood glucose through the day, and ingest carbohydrates or administer insulin as needed to avoid sustained hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, respectively.
Ambulatory assessment is an approach used to study intra-individual variation over time employing repeated assessments in the individual’s natural environment via electronic devices (Jungheanel & Stone., 2022; Ebner-Priemer & Trull, 2009). Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) is a form of ambulatory assessment that typically utilizes self-reports and, more recently, tests of cognitive performance. In the context of diabetes research, EMA has been utilized to measure affective states and self-monitoring behaviors (Warnick et al., 2020; Shapira et al., 2023). Of particular interest for diabetes researchers, EMA can be coupled with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology to enable passive collection of glycemic data alongside behavioral data (including cognitive performance) in real world environments. This can be used to determine how glycemic fluctuations impact behavior acutely outside the controlled laboratory setting. Few studies using EMA coupled with CGM in adults with T1D have reported results to date, although several have published study methodologies, including Cox and colleagues (2005) as well as the FEEL-T1D study (Pyatak et al., 2021) and the Hypo-METRICS study (Søholm et al., 2022). Recently reported data from the FEEL-T1D study examining the acute effects of glycemic excursions on a wide range of aspects of daily functioning, found evidence that overnight glucose may be predictive of next day cognitive functioning (Pyatak et al., 2023). Specifically, higher glucose coefficient of variation (CV) and more time <70 mg/dL were associated with poorer sustained attention (Pyatak et al., 2023).
Individuals with T1D also have a higher prevalence of mood disturbance, including clinical diagnosis of depression and depressive symptoms compared to the general population (Anderson et al., 2001; Grigsby et al., 2002). Additionally, diabetes distress, or the emotional burden associated with managing a demanding chronic condition, is common in people with T1D (Fisher et al., 2010, Tareen & Tareen, 2017; Hagger et al., 2016; Coccaro et al., 2021; McCarthy et al., 2019; Fisher et al., 2012; Gonzalez et al; 2011; Hermanns et al., 2007). Recent data shed light on the short-term associations between glucose and negative affect in daily life (Pyatak et al., 2021; Penckofer et al., 2012; Ehrman et al., 2022; Shapira et al., 2023). EMA data have revealed negative affective states may be associated with increased variability in glucose measured via fingerstick, though the nature of the relationship between glucose and affect is likely bidirectional (Shapira et al., 2023). In a study of 36 adults with T1D, Hermanns et al. (2007) found that over the course of 48 hours, hyperglycemia measured via CGM was associated with greater negative affect. In terms of cognition, a systematic review found a significant association between the presence of depressive symptoms and poorer cognitive performance in individuals with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes that was consistent across four well-powered studies (Danna et al., 2016), though this association has been inconsistent across studies (Brands et al., 2006, Brands et al., 2005).
In addition to affective states, there is evidence of a reciprocal relationship between sleep and glycemia (Barone et al., 2014; Brandt et al., 2021, Nefs et al., 2019). Evidence suggests that individuals with T1D experience higher rates of circadian rhythm disturbances than non-diabetic controls (Perez et al., 2018; Rutters & Nefs, 2022). CGM-measured mean glucose, standard deviation in glucose, and time in range have also been found to be associated with sleep-wake variability, sleep fragmentation and daytime sleepiness in young adults (Griggs et al, 2021). Measurement of daytime sleepiness (as a proxy for sleep quality) also appears to have a significant effect on glucose levels (Søholm et al., 2022). The Hypo-METRICS study demonstrated an association between nocturnal self-reported hypoglycemia and decreased daytime mood, alertness, and sleep quality (Søholm et al., 2022). Furthermore, findings from the recently published FEEL-T1D study revealed that the relationship between glucose CV and sustained attention was partially mediated by sleep fragmentation (measured via accelerometry data), and higher overnight CV was associated with more fragmented sleep (Pyatak et al., 2023). This finding warrants further investigation into the role of sleep characteristics in nocturnal glycemic fluctuations and cognitive performance.
Additionally, results from cross-sectional studies have shown that poor sleep is associated with higher diabetes distress (Griggs et al., 2022). Increased psychological comorbidities, including diabetes distress and depressive symptoms, are associated with increased morbidity, worse glycemic control, poorer treatment outcomes and decreased quality of life (Muijis et al., 2021, Carper et al., 2013). Sleep is also known to have an impact on cognition, where poor sleep quality may be predictive of poor cognitive performance (Nebes et al., 2009; Walker et al., 2009; Lo et al., 2016). Given these findings, the ways in which emotion and sleep impact cognitive function in the context of T1D warrant further investigation.
Thus far, the short-term impacts of nocturnal glycemic excursions on daytime cognition in adults with T1D are not well characterized. EMA coupled with CGM is a powerful methodological approach that has the potential to interrogate the dynamic associations between glucose, affect, sleep and cognition in individuals with T1D. This approach has become technically feasible due to increased sophistication of mobile technology that has enabled highly precise self-administered brief cognitive assessments that can be completed in daily life, as well as the high accuracy of modern passive glucose sensor technology. Thus, the primary objective of the current study is to examine the within-person impact of nocturnal glycemia on next day cognitive performance in adults with T1D utilizing CGM and EMA data. A secondary objective was to examine the impact of sleep characteristics and negative affect states on this relationship.
Methods
Participants and Procedures
The present data were obtained from a pilot study designed to determine the optimal administration schedule of EMA tasks to yield high completion rates and detect sufficient cognitive and glycemic variability. Those data have been published previously. See Mascarenhas Fonseca et al. (2023) for greater detail regarding study methodology, additional measures utilized in the pilot study, and the results related to EMA administration frequency. Individuals aged > 18 years were recruited from the Joslin Diabetes Center at SUNY Upstate Medical University between February and May of 2020. Individuals were considered for participation if they had T1D of greater than 1 year duration, were fluent in English, and demonstrated understanding of EMA and willingness to comply with study procedures to the best of their ability. To complete the mobile assessments, participants were required to have 24-hour access to a smart phone with reliable Wi-Fi. Individuals were excluded if they were currently using real-time CGM as part of their clinical care; were unable to complete cognitive assessments due to significant visual, motor or hearing impairment; were receiving dialysis or chemotherapy; and/or had a recent myocardial infarction, inpatient psychiatric admission, organ transplant, acute neurological insult, terminal medical condition, dementia, or any medical or psychiatric condition or treatment that was judged by the principal investigators to interfere with the completion of the study. Additionally, individuals who completed less than 50% of EMA measures were excluded from analyses. The first six participants were enrolled prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore had in-person enrollment visits. The protocol was then modified to be entirely remote for the remainder of data collection. A Dexcom G6 CGM with a blinded receiver was worn during everyday activities while completing 3–6 daily EMAs using personal smartphones. Participants in the pilot study were randomized to one of two groups (Group A and Group B). Participants in Group A completed 3 assessments a day for a total of 10 days for the first portion of the study, and then completed 6 assessments a day for the last 5 days of participation. The conditions in Group B were counterbalanced (6 EMAs per day for 5 days followed by 3 per day for 10 days). Each participant wore the CGM for a total of 15 days and was administered a total of 60 EMAs. EMAs were delivered between 9 am and 9 pm for 15 days. Because adherence to EMA tasks was similar for the 3 and 6 per day schedules (Mascarenhas Fonseca et al., 2023), the two counterbalanced groups were combined for the current analyses.
Materials
Baseline Questionnaires
To characterize the cohort in terms of sleep characteristics and affect, sleep quality was measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), which is a self-report measure that assesses sleep duration and quality over a one-month interval (Buysse et al., 1989). The PSQI has internal homogeneity with a high reliability coefficient in both component scores (α = 0.83), and individual items (α = 0.83) as well as good test-retest reliability and has acceptable validity (Buyesse et al., 1989). Presence of depressive symptoms was assessed via the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-8).
EMA
EMAs were completed by participants on a secure digital platform (TestMyBrain; TMB) via a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Measures included 1) brief cognitive tests measuring cognitive control/sustained attention, psychomotor processing speed and visual working memory developed by TMB and validated for brief mobile administration (Singh et al., 2023) and 2) questions to provide self-report data for momentary negative affect, alertness/sleepiness, and prior night sleep quality.
Cognitive EMA
The TMB Gradual Onset Continuous Performance Test (GradCPT) was used to assess sustained attention and response inhibition (Fortenbaugh, et al., 2015). Participants see a series of city or mountain scenes and are asked to tap the screen whenever they see a city scene and withhold a response whenever they see a mountain scene. The primary score of interest is sensitivity or d-prime, a measure of target discriminability not impacted by response bias, where higher scores indicate better performance as well as response accuracy. The EMA version of this task takes one minute and has been previously validated with excellent between-person reliability (Singh et al., 2023). To assess visuospatial working memory, the TMB Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) was administered (Treviño et al., 2021). In this assessment, participants track a target dot as it moves among other dots on the screen. For the current study, accuracy was the outcome measure for the MOT task. The EMA version of this task takes one minute and has been validated for EMA with excellent between-person reliability (Singh et al., 2023). Performance on this test has been shown to correlate with other tests of attention, cognitive control, and working memory (Singh et al., 2021). Lastly, the TMB Digit Symbol Matching (DSM) test was utilized to examine psychomotor processing speed (Hartshorne & Germine, 2015), and performance was measured for this assessment by participant’s median reaction time for correct responses. During this assessment, participants match a set of symbols to the numbers 1, 2, or 3, based on a key presented on screen. Despite its brief administration time (~30 seconds), this task has been validated for EMA with excellent between-person reliability (Singh et al., 2023). The TMB Digit Symbol Matching task has also been shown to correlate with other measures of cognitive processing speed (Singh et al., 2021; Singh et al., 2023). Day-level average scores were calculated (total score divided by the number of EMA administered) for each cognitive test.
Negative Affect EMA
Negative affect was assessed via seven self-report items (Sliwinski et al., 2009). Participants indicated the extent to which they felt: restless or fidgety, so sad that nothing could cheer [them] up, that everything was an effort, hopeless, irritated, worried, and depressed. Responses were based on a 5-item Likert scale from “none of the time” to “all of the time” since the last EMA. Day-level average scores were calculated for all administered affect questions.
Sleep Quality and Sleepiness EMA
The 1-item Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (Åkerstedt et al., 2014) was used to assess sleepiness at every EMA occasion, with the following rating options, ranging from extreme alertness to extreme sleepiness: 1=extremely alert, 2=very alert, 3=alert, 4=rather alert, 5=neither alert nor sleepy, 6=some signs of sleepiness, 7=sleepy, but no effort to keep awake, 8=sleepy, some effort to keep awake, and 9=very sleepy, great effort to keep awake, fighting sleep. Day-level average scores were calculated. Sleep quality was assessed via a single item administered each morning: “How well did you sleep last night?” Very well / somewhat well / somewhat poorly / very poorly (Åkerstedt et al., 2014). This measure has been shown to have acceptable reliability and construct validity (Nordin et al., 2019).
Glucose Measures
Blinded CGM
The blinded Dexcom G6 CGM (FDA-approved) consists of a sensor placed subcutaneously that is worn for a maximum of 10 days and a transmitter that transmits glucose readings to the receiver every 5 minutes. A blinded receiver was used in order to avoid knowledge of current blood glucose levels from influencing responses to the EMA tasks. Participants were free to check their glucose via finger stick as necessary to self-manage their diabetes. The CGM was inserted during the baseline visit and participants received training on how to replace the sensor at home. A second sensor was sent home with the participant so that they could replace the sensor after the first sensor session ended. Hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia were defined as the percentage of time spent with sensor glucose values <70 mg/dL or > 180 mg/dL, respectively. Daytime (8 am to 9 pm) and nocturnal (9 pm to 8 am) glycemic excursions (% hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia) were calculated separately.
Statistical Analyses
Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, range) were calculated for demographic, CGM, and baseline affect and sleep variables. Multilevel models estimated person- and day-level associations between independent variables (% hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, negative affect, sleepiness, and sleep quality) and outcomes (cognitive EMA scores) while controlling for age as a covariate. Day-level aggregate measures of each EMA measure were created by averaging across the respective items at each of the 3 or 6 repeated assessments within each day for a total of 15 day-level means for each variable. This was done for two reasons: 1) we were most interested in the impact of clinically relevant CGM metrics (i.e., % hypoglycemia, % hyperglycemia) aggregated over clinically relevant time periods (i.e., nocturnal vs daytime) on daytime cognitive performance, rather within-day glucose-cognition associations and 2) the pilot study design resulted in half the sample receiving a different number of EMAs each day.
Person-level variables were calculated as the arithmetic mean across each participant’s repeated measures. These variables were centered around the sample grand mean to provide an estimate of each participant’s usual levels relative to the overall sample. Day-level variables were calculated as deviations around each participant’s mean and, thus, represented days when a participant had higher or lower levels of the measures of interest (glucose levels, sleepiness, sleep quality, negative affect) than they did on average.
We began by estimating a series of preliminary, unconditional growth models to determine the functional form and error structure of cognitive EMA outcome scores across the fifteen days. These models assessed whether changes in EMA scores followed a quadratic or linear trend and specified a random intercept and a first-order autoregressive (AR1) error structure to account for correlated residuals across the fifteen days.
To test our hypotheses, a series of multilevel models were then estimated for each cognitive outcome separately (see Tables 2, 3 and 4), using the following model-building strategy: The first model (Model A) was designed to test the primary hypothesis and included the within-person and between-person effects of the CGM variables on each cognitive outcome. In the next step (Model B), negative affect was entered as both a within-person and between-person variable to determine if effects of CGM on cognition remained. Next, Models C and D included the sleep variables (sleep quality and sleepiness, respectively) to determine if the effects of CGM on cognition remained, after accounting for within-person and between-person effects of sleep quality (Model C) and sleepiness (Model D). Preliminary models indicated that the quadratic term for day of assessment (centered at the first day of the study) was not significant for any of the cognitive EMA outcome scores; thus, linear trends representing day of the study were included in all subsequent models. All models included the participants’ age as a between-person covariate and included a random intercept; thus, average levels of the cognitive tests were allowed to vary across the participants, but within-person effects were constrained to be fixed. The multilevel models were estimated using SAS Proc Mixed, with incomplete data treated using missing at random assumptions and restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation.

Associations between sleep, affect, and cognition
Additional analyses examined direct associations between the sleep quality, sleepiness, and negative affect variables and 1) cognitive outcomes and 2) CGM variables (i.e., the independent effects of negative affect, sleepiness, and sleep quality on each cognitive EMA and the independent effects of CGM variables on negative affect, sleepiness, and sleep quality).
Results
Table 1 presents the demographic, clinical and CGM characteristics of the enrolled sample of adults with T1D (n=20). Two participants were excluded in the subsequent multilevel analyses due to <50% EMA completion rate at the end of data collection. Thus, multilevel models were estimated using data from 18 participants. Sixteen of the participants had data from all 15 days; one participant had data across 14 days and one participant had data from 13 total days.

Within Person Effects
Results of multilevel models testing controlled effects of CGM on each of the cognitive test outcomes are presented in Tables 2 – 4. Across the series of models, within-person effects of day of study were significant for DSM and MOT performance, indicating that performance improved with repeated exposure to the task (i.e., there were significant practice effects across the 15 days of the study). Specific results for DSM median reaction time (Table 2) indicated within-person fluctuations in % nocturnal hypoglycemia were significantly associated with daytime processing speed. Specifically, when participants spent a higher percentage of time in hypoglycemia the night prior, relative to their average percentage the night prior, they performed slower than their average DSM performance the following day (b = 104.56, p = 0.013), while their same day percent time in hypoglycemia was not associated with within-person variation in DSM performance. This association remained significant after controlling for within-person effects of negative affect, sleep quality, and sleepiness (all ps < 0.05).
As seen in Table 3, results of the multilevel models predicting changes in daytime visual working memory (MOT) indicated that within-person fluctuations in % same day hypoglycemia were significantly associated with MOT performance. Specifically, on days when participants spent higher than their average time in hypoglycemia (during the day), they performed poorer on the MOT. This within-person effect was only significant, however, when sleep quality was included in the model (Table 3, Model C: b = −0.16, p = 0.030). No within-person effects of hypoglycemia were found for GradCPT (Table 4). Across the three cognitive tests, no significant within-person effects were found for either daytime or nocturnal hyperglycemia.
Between Person Effects
Given the small sample size, between-person effects should be interpreted with caution. Participants’ age was a significant predictor of both DSM and MOT performance, across each series of models. When accounting for age, no other significant between-person effects were found for DSM performance (Table 2). As seen in Table 3 (Model A), there was a significant negative between-person effect of daytime hyperglycemia on MOT performance (b = −0.22, p = 0.04), as well as a positive association of nocturnal hyperglycemia on MOT performance (b = 0.22, p = 0.03). Specifically, those with more daytime hyperglycemia, across the study, performed poorer on the MOT, and this effect remained significant after controlling for negative affect and sleepiness, but not when controlling for sleep quality (p = .086). However, individuals with more nocturnal hyperglycemia performed better on the MOT, and this effect remained significant even after controlling for negative affect, sleep quality, and sleepiness (Table 3, Models B-D). There were no significant between-person effects for the models’ predicting changes in GradCPT (Table 4).
Associations between sleep, affect, and cognition
The next series of multilevel models specified within-person and between-person effects of negative affect, sleep quality, and sleepiness (each entered as separate predictors) on each cognitive test outcome. Results (see Supplemental Table S1) indicated there were no significant within-person nor between-person effects of negative affect, sleep quality, or sleepiness on any of the cognitive test outcomes when controlling for age. In the final analyses, three separate multilevel models were estimated in which the CGM variables were specified as predictors of negative affect, sleep quality, and sleepiness (Supplemental Table S2). Results indicated a positive within-person effect of same-day hyperglycemia (>180 mg/dL) on negative affect (b = 1.56, p = 0.007), as well as a negative within-person effect of same-day hyperglycemia on sleep quality (b = −0.24, p = 0.005). Thus, on days when participants spent more time in hyperglycemia, relative to their average, they reported greater negative affect during that day (Model 1) and poorer sleep quality during the prior night (Model 2). There were no significant between-person effects of CGM variables on any of these outcomes, nor was day of study or age associated with daily reports of negative affect, sleep quality, or sleepiness.
Discussion
In the current real-world study using EMA and CGM to examine the impact of nocturnal glycemic excursions on cognition in 18 adults with T1D, we found that when participants had more nocturnal hypoglycemia than they typically do, their processing speed was slower the next day. The current findings of the association between nocturnal hypoglycemia and next day processing speed differs from results reported in a smaller study (n=10) involving experimental manipulation of nocturnal glucose (1 hour of hypoglycemia 41– 49 mg/dL) that found no impact on next day cognitive performance (King et al., 1998). However, recently reported results from the FEEL-T1D study using CGM and mobile cognitive assessment of sustained attention via GradCPT also found a within person association between nocturnal hypoglycemia and cognition (Pyatak et al, 2023). In terms of effect magnitude, in our sample, every 1% increase in nocturnal % time spent in hypoglycemia (<70) was associated with a 104.71 millisecond slower median reaction time the following day (e.g., If an individual went from 8% to 9% in nocturnal time spent in hypoglycemia, we would expect to see a slowing in median reaction by 104.71 milliseconds the following day). Given that one year of age was associated with 9 ms of slowing on the DSM, this degree of reaction time slowing is equivalent to 11 years of aging.
Interestingly, when participants spent more time in hypoglycemia than typical for them during the day, there was no impact on processing speed, as was expected based on clamp studies (Ewing et al., 1998; McAulay et al., 2006). It is possible that individual nocturnal hypoglycemic events were longer at night due to failure to recognize and treat hypoglycemia when asleep, however, the absolute amount of time spent in hypoglycemia during the day (30 minutes) was similar to the absolute amount of time spent in hypoglycemia at night (31 minutes). Despite prior evidence that same day hyperglycemia results in a slowing of cognitive performance in people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes (Cox et al., 2005), there was no within-person association between percent time spent in hyperglycemia (during the day or night) on cognitive performance and no within-person impact of CGM metrics on the other cognitive EMA measures (GradCPT and MOT), in the current study.
Although our pilot study was not powered to detect reliable between-person effects of CGM metrics on cognitive performance, we found several significant associations between CGM metrics and the MOT task that require replication. Specifically, those with more daytime hyperglycemia performed worse on the MOT, as expected. However, counter to expectations, individuals with less nocturnal hyperglycemia performed worse on the MOT. Further investigation revealed a moderate negative correlation between nocturnal hyperglycemia and nocturnal hypoglycemia (r = −0.61, p = 0.01), raising the possibility that this finding is driven by the fact that those who have less nocturnal hyperglycemia tend to also have more nocturnal hypoglycemia. This finding will be explored in a larger sample.
Despite a high burden of emotional and sleep health concerns in individuals with T1D, we did not find evidence supporting a significant role of negative affect or sleep quality in the relationship between glycemic excursions and cognition in the current sample. Specifically, the significant within-person association between time spent in nocturnal hypoglycemia and processing speed the next day remained significant after controlling for age, negative affect, sleepiness, and sleep quality. In contrast, Pyatak et al. (2023) found sleep partially mediated the association between nocturnal glycemic fluctuations and sustained attention, though this relationship was observed with sleep fragmentation as a variable, which was not measured in the current study. We did find that when individuals had more hyperglycemia than their average, they also experienced more negative affect and worse sleep quality.
It is important to consider the limitations of this pilot study when interpreting our results. Failure to detect some hypothesized associations may be due to the small sample size, particularly for detecting between-person effects for which we did not have sufficient power. Therefore, the reported between-person associations are exploratory in nature and require replication. Additionally, given the sample size for the pilot study, while we controlled for age in our analyses, we were under-powered to detect meaningful age group differences in the strength of the association between nocturnal glucose and next day cognitive performance. Future research should investigate whether older adults are more vulnerable to the effects of nocturnal hypoglycemia on cognitive performance. Further, as the aim of the current pilot study was to examine the effect of clinically relevant nocturnal glucose metrics (e.g., % time <70 mg/dL) in relation to next day cognition, we aggregated data within each day of the study. This may have obscured more acute impacts of glucose, negative affect, and sleepiness on cognition during the day. Our measures of sleep quality and sleepiness were based on subjective, self-report data. Future research should consider utilizing objective measures of sleep (e.g., sleep study, actigraphy). While the use of blinded CGM makes it less likely that the current findings are attributable to expectancies based on knowledge of glucose levels, individuals with T1D often have symptoms during glucose extremes, such as blurred vision, irritability, and confusion, and finger-stick glucose testing is necessary for appropriate clinical management. Therefore, it is possible that participants were aware of glucose excursions, which may have influenced the findings presented here. Lastly, our sample was homogenous in terms of race/ethnicity- all participants were White, which limits generalizability.
Individuals with T1D are an important population in which to utilize EMA methodology coupled with passive glucose sensing given the complex behavioral and physiological processes inherent to T1D. However, this approach could be generalized to other populations characterized by dynamic physiological processes that impact cognitive and emotional health, as well as better understanding the factors that underlie normal cognitive performance fluctuations. Thus, the method described in this pilot study (passive physiological recording, mobile cognitive testing, and self-report via EMA) provides a powerful approach to studying the cognitive impacts of fluctuating physiological states and psychological symptoms in other patient populations. For example, wearable sensors that detect movement, sleep, cardiac function, respiration, or stress hormones could be substituted for glucose monitoring in future studies with participants who do not have T1D. Our approach may serve as methodological guidance for future studies that aim to examine cognitive performance via EMA. Further, assessment of cognition under naturally occurring environmental conditions is likely to provide a more ecologically valid assessment of typical cognitive performance (and how cognition is influenced by those environmental conditions) than a single clinical assessment performed under ideal conditions. Thus, our methodology has the potential to lead to more ecologically relevant findings.
The current findings provide further evidence that nocturnal hypoglycemia can affect processing speed the next day. These within-person associations have the potential to direct clinical interventions that may improve cognitive performance. Notably, commercially available automated insulin delivery via a hybrid closed-loop system has been shown to reduce the amount of time individuals spend in hypoglycemia at night by approximately 2% (Kovatchev et al., 2020), which would be equivalent to a 208 ms improvement in next day processing speed. Whether use of real-time CGM with alerts and automated insulin delivery systems result in better daytime processing speed is an important area for future study. Additionally, it is important to note that the cognitive effects that we report may differ throughout the day, perhaps due to circadian effects or other factors. Due to the aggregation of EMA data within days, these effects could not be detected in the current pilot study. Future research is needed to explore within day variation.
