Result: The proportion of diabetic control in this study based on Hba1c level 7% and below was 25% and 4.0% found to have cognitive impairment. There is no association between cognitive impairment and diabetes control. The mean score of diabetes knowledge questionnaire is 12.9. Conclusion: From this study, the diabetes control was quiet good compared to other study in this country, but still below national standard and low proportion of cognitive impairment. There is no association between cognitive impairment and diabetes control may due to low proportion of cognitive impairment. 2016 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/41965/ http://eprints.usm.my/41965/1/Dr._Khairunnisa_Mohd_Khathri-24_pages.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Sains Perubatan
