Exercise modifies hypothalamic connectivity and brain functional networks in women after bariatric surgery: a randomized clinical trial
Authors' conclusion
Exercise training is an important component in the management of post-bariatric patients and may improve the hypothalamic connectivity and brain functional networks that are involved in controlling food intake.
Study context
- Population
- Women eligible for bariatric surgery
- Participants
- 30 women
- Comparison
- RYGB plus exercise training vs RYGB alone
- RYGB + ETn = 15
- RYGBn = 15reference
Primary result
As reported in the abstract
Brain functional connectivity
RYGB + ET vs RYGB: increased connectivity between hypothalamus and sensorial regions (seed-to-voxel analyses)
p-FDR < 0.05
RYGB + ET vs RYGB: decreased default mode network (DMN) and posterior salience (pSAL) network connectivity (ROI-to-ROI analyses)
p-FDR < 0.05
