Article Synopsis
- * The study used large neuroimaging databases to identify brain regions where insulin resistance negatively impacts gray matter volume, particularly in older adults, affecting areas related to the default-mode and limbic networks.
- * A notable connection was found between these affected brain networks and the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus, suggesting that insulin resistance may disrupt brain connectivity through metabolic homeostasis processes in the hypothalamus.
