For older adults with type 2 diabetes, a single dose of intranasal insulin increases resting-state brain functional connectivity, according to a study published in Diabetes.

Hui Zhang, from Peking University in Beijing, and colleagues examined the impact of a single dose of intranasal insulin on resting-state brain functional connectivity in older adults with type 2 diabetes. The impact of a single dose of insulin or saline was examined in 14 adults with diabetes and 14 controls. Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to quantify resting-state functional connectivity between the hippocampal region and default mode network (DMN).
