In the current study, we employed multivariate pattern analysis method together with Diffusion Tensor Imaging measures to make prediction on the cognitive performance of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, and explore the white matter tracts associated with cognitive changes in T2DM. The prediction model obtained relatively satisfying performance in the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores estimation among T2DM patients, suggesting the effectiveness of the multivariable analysis method. The white matter identified in the current study mainly concerned the tracts closely related with cognitive function and memory performance, which were consistent with the finding of previous T2DM cognitive studies.
