Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, The brain detects levels of circulating nutrients and hormones and consequently organizes an outward response regulating whole-body glucose homeostasis. On the other hand, patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes have been shown to have mild to moderate reductions in cognitive function compared to non-diabetic controls. This association between diabetes and lower cognitive functions is mediated mainly by markers of both neurodegeneration and cerebrovascular disease. With the ever-increasing incidence of diabetes worldwide, there is an urgent need to understand the complex interplay between the central nervous system and peripheral insulin regulation. To gain more insights on this topic, join the renowned physicians, Dr. Harish Ramchandra Joshi and Dr. Rahul Kulkarni, in our exclusive Global Diabetes Summit, where they will discuss "Brain Matters in Diabetes," TODAY, at 6:00 PM IST. |
