| description | Depression, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and obesity are comorbid, and prevention and treatment of all three diseases are needed. We hypothesized an inverse relationship between the connectivity of the cingulo-opercular task control network with the somatosensory mouth network and the interaction between HbA1c and depression. Three-hundred and twenty-five participants (BMI: 26.11 ± 0.29; Achenbach adult self-report (ASR) DSM depressive problems T-score (depression): 54.60 ± 6.77; Age: 28.26 ± 3.90 y; adult self-report anxiety and depression scale (anxiety and depression): 54.69 ± 7.27; HbA1c: 5.26 ± 0.29; 68% white) were sampled from the Human Connectome Project 1200 subjects PTN release. Inclusion criteria were: four (15 min) resting state fMRI scans; BMI; hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c); and complete adult self-report data. The following models were run to assess the connectivity between 15 independent fMRI components: the interaction of depression with HbA1c; anxiety and depression with HbA1c; depression with BMI; and anxiety and depression with BMI. All models were corrected for a reported number of depressive symptoms, head motion in the scanner, age, and race. Functional connectivity was modeled in FSLNets. Corrected significance was set at pFWE < 0.05. The interaction HbA1c and anxiety and depression was positively related to the connectivity of the cerebellum with the visual network (t = 3.76, pFWE = 0.008), frontoparietal network (t = 3.45, pFWE = 0.02), and somatosensory mouth network (t = 4.29, pFWE = 0.0004). Although our hypotheses were not supported, similar increases in cerebellar connectivity are seen in patients with T2D and overall suggest that the increased cerebellar connectivity may be compensatory for an increasingly poor glycemic control. |
