Brief Summary: Diabetic Retinopathy DR is the most frequent complication of diabetes and its presence and severity are related to the appearance of both micro and macrovascular events

Risk profiles have been suggested as a major direction for research in diabetes based on non- invasive retinal imaging evaluations There has been promising evidence that artificial intelligence AI based on fundus photographs can detect clinical metrics and systemic conditions invisible to expert human observers Notably deep-learning DL convolutional neural networks CNNs developed for retinal photographs have been shown superior performance in the detection of DR compared with human assessment

The relationship between retinal vascular abnormalities and neurovascular complications of diabetes has been reported The retina is a window to the body that allows a non-invasive observation of microvascular and neural tissues However in clinical practice there are no reported phenotypic indicators or reliable examinations to identify type 2 diabetic T2D patients with neurodegenerativecognitive impairment The presence of cognitive Impairment is a very frequent complication in diabetic patients reported up to 60 of the diabetics when compared to only 11 in the non-diabetics OR of 878

Furthermore AI based on retinal imaging has never been applied before to predict the onset and worsening of neurodegenerativecognitive impairment of T2D in a real-world setting

The aim of this project is to develop trustworthy AI tools for predicting the risk of developing and progressing of neurodegenerativecognitive diabetic impairment based on retinal images in T2D population For the development and validation of these tools T2D patients will be enrolled from 4 well-established Italian centers

The proposal of this study is addressed to health care systems in order to improve their consciousness about diabetic neurodegenerativecognitive complications and reduce the related economic burden Since the huge majority of these disorders remain undiagnosed DINEURET will provide new cost-effective screening strategies to identify these patients

4 centers will be involved

75 patients will be included in the IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele Milan
75 patients will be included in the IRCCS MultiMedica Milan
50 patients will be included in the Ospedale Della Murgia Fabio Perinei Altamura
50 patients will be included in the Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria AOUI of Cagliari Cagliari
