TABLE 4.

Neural response to appetitive food cues relative to neutral cues among individuals with “more successful” and “less successful” weight loss outcomes after gastric-bypass surgery

Region ~BA MNI Coordinates t Size
Crave run
More greater than less successful No significant clusters
More greater than less successful No significant clusters
Resist run
More greater than less successful
Superior/middle frontal gyrus L 9 –39 38 31 4.00 343
More greater than less successful No significant clusters

Results of two-sample t-tests comparing groups. More successful (n = 24), less successful (n = 7); Voxel threshold P < 0.01 for 10 contiguous voxels. Region is significant at cluster-level P = 0.005, uncorrected (P = .062, corrected). Coordinates of peak activity reported.
