Executive function/processing speed composite 0.20 (0.7) -0.83 (1.1) 11.72 0.001 ηp2 = 0.218

T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus; SD, standard deviation; FSRP, Framingham stroke risk profile (D’Agostino et al., 1994); GDS, geriatric depression scale; DRS, Mattis dementia rating scale (Mattis, 1988).

Data are mean and standard deviation in parentheses unless otherwise noted.

∗∗Modified FSRP omitting diabetes.

∗∗∗DRS total score is a raw score (maximum possible score = 144); memory and executive function/processing speed composite scores are z scores. Results for the group comparisons on DRS and memory and executive function/processing speed composite scores are from analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) models adjusted for age, sex, and education.
