We aimed to assess neurodegenerative changes in the rhinencephalon via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and relate it to olfactory function and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Individuals aged 18-65 with T1D duration over 10 years and control healthy subjects underwent olfactory assessment using Sniffin'Sticks and brain MRI to assess volumetric measurements of the olfactory bulbs and piriform cortex thickness. 32 T1D (24 males) aged 43.

Materials And Methods: The following parameters were examined in the group of 113 T1DM participants: body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), TG/HDL ratio, glycated hemoglobin (HbA ), visceral fat (VF) in body bioimpedance, specific calculators (eGDR, VAI). Bilateral olfactory test score (BOTS) was performed using 12-odour-tests from Sniffin' Sticks.
INTRODUCTION Olfactory function is impaired in patients with type 1 diabetes and can be recognized as a form of diabetic neuropathy. Physical activity has various beneficial effects on type 1 diabetes. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess a relation between physical activity and olfactory function in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Materials And Methods: A total of 106 patients with type 1 diabetes and 30 healthy subjects were included in the study.
