AB  - Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a major health issue in Saudi Arabia, with a 
      prevalence of 23.7% in 2015. Several factors contribute to the occurrence of Mild 
      Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and its progression to Alzheimer's disease in patients 
      with T2DM. This study assesses MCI and fatigue severity and their relationship in 
      patients with T2DM. Out of the 160 Saudi adults interviewed at the King Khalid 
      University Hospital in Riyadh from October 2019 till March 2020, 80 were known 
      cases of T2DM while the rest were non-diabetic individuals. The Montreal 
      Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test, Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) and Fatigue 
      Severity Score (FSS) were used to evaluate MCI and fatigue severity, 
      respectively. According to the MoCA scale, 68.7% diabetic individuals as against 
      42.5% from the non-diabetic group had MCI. While the FSS showed that 40% of the 
      diabetic group vs 26.3% of the non-diabetic were fatigued. In conclusion, 
      patients with T2DM are at a higher risk of developing MCI.
