Patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) show brain tissue changes in mood and cognitive control sites, functions that are deficient in the condition. However, the extent of brain gray matter volume loss in various sites, as well as progression of volume loss with time in controlled and uncontrolled T2DM adults are unclear. We observed higher gray matter volume loss in crucial brain areas involved in cognition and mood control in T2DM adults with uncontrolled glucose levels and accelerated progression after 6-months of follow-up. These findings indicate the need for optimal glucose management in T2DM adults.
