Data were expressed as mean (95% CI). Glu, glucose; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; ApoE, apolipoprotein E; nT2DM-MCI, mild cognitive impairment subjects without type 2 diabetes mellitus; T2DM-MCI, mild cognitive impairment subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. General Line Model (GLM) was used for data serum parameters and cognition comparison. Factors including age, BMI, education, smoking, alcohol drinking, exercise, reading habits, housework doing were adjusted. P < 0.05 was considered as significance.
