Adipokines: a link between obesity and dementia?

Abstract

Being overweight or obese, as measured with body mass index (BMI) or central adiposity (waist circumference), and evolving trajectory of BMI over the life course, have been associated with brain atrophy, white matter changes, blood brain barrier integrity and risk of all-cause late-onset dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). This observation leads us to question what it is about BMI that is associated with health of the brain and dementia risk. If high BMI and central adiposity represent an increase in adipose tissue, then the endocrine aspect of adipose tissue, mediated by adipose tissue hormones and adipokines, may be a clue to understanding the association with dementia and AD. Hundreds of adipokines have been identified, creating a complexity that is challenging to simplify. Nonetheless, adipokines are being investigated in association with clinical dementia outcomes, as well as imaging-based measures of brain volume, structure and function in preclinical and human models of clinical dementia.

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.
