Multimodal MRI Neurodevelopmental Profiling in Type 1 Diabetes: Long-term Effects of MDI vs CSII Treatments

Key Points

The study aims to explore the neurodevelopmental impacts of different insulin treatment modalities in pediatric T1D.
Utilized multimodal MRI for neuroimaging analysis.
Compared insulin delivery methods: multiple daily injections (MDI) and continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII).
Examined the association between brain structures and metabolic control.
CSII correlated with improved functional connectivity in the brain.
Right IFG volume was identified as a marker linking metabolic regulation with executive function.
CSII treatment showed potential neuroprotective benefits over MDI.

Abstract

Pediatric T1D is associated with multimodal neuroimaging alterations influenced by insulin treatment modality. CSII may confer neuroprotective benefits by improving metabolic control and preserving functional connectivity. Right IFG volume is a candidate imaging marker linking metabolic regulation to interference-sensitive executive-working-memory vulnerability.
