LID - 10.1007/s12020-023-03342-6 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) lead to impaired cerebral blood perfusion, which leads to changes in brain function and affects the cognitive function of patients. In this study, cerebral blood flow (CBF) was used to evaluate the effect of T2DM on cerebral perfusion, and functional connectivity (FC) analysis was further used to explore whether the FC between the abnormal CBF region and the whole brain was changed. In addition, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and degree centrality (DC) were used to investigate the changes in spontaneous activity and connectivity strength of the brain network. METHODS: We recruited 40 T2DM patients and 55 healthy controls (HCs). They underwent 3D-T1WI, rs-fMRI, arterial spin labeling (ASL) sequence scans and a series of cognitive tests. Cognitive test scores and brain imaging indicators were compared between the two groups, and the relationships among laboratory indicators, cognitive test scores, and brain imaging indicators were explored in the T2DM group. RESULTS: Compared to HCs, The CBF values of Calcarine_L and Precuneus_R in the T2DM group were lower. The DC value of Paracentral_Lobule_L and Precuneus_L, and the ALFF value of Hippocampus_L in the T2DM group were higher. In addition, the CBF values of Calcarine_L was negatively correlated with fasting insulin and HOMA_IR. CONCLUSION: This study found that there were regions of cerebral hypoperfusion in T2DM patients, which are associated with insulin resistance. In addition, we found abnormally elevated brain activity and enhanced functional connectivity in T2DM patients, which we speculated was the compensatory mechanism of brain neural activity.
