Association between short-term glucose fluctuations and cognition in patients with acute ischemic stroke complicated by type 2 diabetes mellitus

Glucose fluctuations are more harmful than persistent hyperglycemia for chronic complications of diabetes. However, the relationship between cognition and glucose fluctuations in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) complicated by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between short-term glucose fluctuations and cognition in patients with AIS complicated by T2DM.
