Cognitive effects of insulin in the central nervous system
Abstract
Evidence has been accumulating recently that the hormone insulin may modulate cognitive activity by acting in the central nervous system. Initially derived from the observation that insulin and insulin receptors are found in specific brain areas, this evidence also includes cognitive assessments of humans in insulin-deficient and insulin-resistant disease states and experimental manipulation of rodent models. Additional support is derived from in vivo and in vitro systems that are used to investigate the neurophysiological basis of learning and memory. This article is a brief review of the literature that suggests a connection between insulin and memory and draws together some of the findings relevant to possible physiological mechanisms for this cognitive effect.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
