Progression in diabetic nephropathy is usually determined by repeated measurements of glomerular filtration rate and expressed as rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate. Our aim was to evaluate the agreement between rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate estimated from the Cockroft-Gau

Examination and in all patients by a P-300 analysis. From this study it would appear that relatively complex tasks are affected, which is in line with the literature we reviewed. However, suggestive as they are, the data should be treated with caution as the experimental and control group differ in size and both are relatively small. Furthermore, one would like to know how metabolic control was achieved (diet and/or oral hypoglycaemic drugs) 9 As it stands the results seem to be of a preliminary nature but point to the possibility that careful analysis will reveal cognitive dysfunction also in younger patients suffering from NIDDM.
