Decreased glucose metabolism in medial prefrontal areas associated w/ nutritional status in patients Alzheimer's disease

Decreased glucose metabolism in medial prefrontal areas associated w/ nutritional status in patients Alzheimer's disease:

Dementia Big
A new study from the Multimodal Neuroimaging for AD Diagnosis (MULNIAD) study, which is a prospective study implemented at the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology (NCGG), provides that hypometabolism in the medial prefrontal areas is specifically associated with Alzheimer’s disease-related nutritional problems, and decrease in fat mass may have a key role. This study is published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease.
