Regions of altered structural and functional connectivity in T2DM. We summarize previously reported brain regions of T2DM related cognitive impairment based on structural connectivity and functional connectivity analysis. We extracted these brain regions from automated anatomical labeling (AAL) and displayed them in BrainNet Viewer (http://www.nitrc.org/projects/bnv/). Blue regions only indicate brain regions with disrupted structural connectivity in T2DM related cognitive impairment. Red regions only indicates brain regions with disrupted functional connectivity in T2DM related cognitive impairment. The yellow regions indicate the brain area where both structural and functional connectivity was interrupted in T2DM related cognitive impairment, mainly the hippocampus. PreCG, precental gyrus; MFG, middle frontal gyrus; ROL, rolandic operculum; REC, gyrus rectus; INS, insula; ACG, anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyri; PCG, posterior cingulate gyrus; HIP, hippocampus; AMYG, amygdala; MOG, middle occipital gyrus; FFG, fusiform gyrus; IPL, inferior parietal, but supramarginal and angular gyri; THA, thalamus; TPOsup, temporal pole: superior temporal gyrus; MTG, middle temporal gyrus; CRBL3, cerebellum superior; R, right; L, left.
