Objective
The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of an intermittent low‐carbohydrate diet (ILCD) versus calorie restriction (ICR) in young populations and potential mechanisms.
Methods
Thirty‐four participants aged 9 to 30 years with cardiometabolic risk were randomized to receive a self‐administered 2‐week ILCD (carbohydrate intake ≤ 50 g/d on seven nonconsecutive days) or...
Objective
The goal of this study was to investigate laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG)‐induced changes in choice impulsivity and the neural correlates in individuals with obesity (OB).
Methods
The study employed functional magnetic resonance imaging with a delay discounting task in 29 OB tested before and 1 month after LSG. Thirty participants with normal weight matched to OB with gender and...
Objective
The aim of this study was to investigate laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG)‐induced changes in connectivity between regions involved with reward/antireward and cognitive control and the extent to which these changes persist after surgery and predict sustainable weight loss.
Methods
Whole‐brain local functional connectivity density (lFCD) was studied in 25 participants with obesity...
