Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Blood Sample Collection  A 5 mL venous blood sample was collected from each Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patient using standard aseptic techniques. The samples were allowed to clot at room temperature and subsequently centrifuged to separate the serum. The obtained serum was stored at -80°C until further analysis. Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) kits specific to the biomarkers of interest were then used to quantitatively assess their concentrations according to the manufacturers protocol. 
Comparator Agent  Healthy controls  Healthy volunteers without Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) or any known neuropsychiatric disorders will be recruited for the study. A 5 mL venous blood sample will be collected from each participant under sterile conditions. The samples will be processed and analyzed using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) to quantify the levels of specific biomarkers.

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Chronic T2DM is often association various other complications such as atherosclerosis, obesity, hypertension and neuropsychiatric disorders such as mild cognitive impairment that can progress to dementia or Alzheimer’s and depression. My study involves assessment of T2DM patients and prediction of early biomarkers for the assessment of mild cognitive impairment and depression in such patients. Early assessment of mild cognitive impairment and depression in such patients will allow early intervention and development of personalized treatment plan for these patients in order to combat future prognosis of these abnormalities. Early intervention and care will provide a better quality of life and decreased risk of future complications associated with chronic T2DM.
