| Abstract | In addition to increased risks of macrovascular and microvascular complications, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) usually also are at increased risk for cognitive impairment and dementia. Hypoglycemia, a common consequence of diabetes treatment, is considered an independent risk factor for dementia in patients with T2DM. Hypoglycemia and dementia are clinically underestimated and are related to poor outcomes; thus, they may compromise the life expectancy of patients with T2DM. Epidemiological evidence of hypoglycemia-associated cognitive decline and dementia is highly varied. Acute, severe hypoglycemic episodes induce chronic subclinical brain damage, cognitive decline, and subsequent dementia. However, the effects of recurrent moderate hypoglycemia on cognitive decline and dementia remain largely uninvestigated. Poor glycemic control (including fluctuation of hemoglobin A1C [HbA1c] and glucose values) and the viscous circle of bidirectional associations between dementia and hypoglycemia may be clinically relevant. The possible pathophysiological hypotheses include post-hypoglycemic neuronal damage, inflammatory processes, coagulation defects, endothelial abnormalities, and synaptic dysfunction of hippocampal neurons during hypoglycemia episodes. This article reviews previous findings, provides insight into the detection of groups at high risk of hypoglycemia-associated dementia, and proposes specific strategies to minimize the potential burdens associated with hypoglycemia-related neurocognitive disorders in patients with T2DM. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
