Association of Obesity-Mediated Insulin Resistance and Hypothalamic Volumes: Possible Sex Differences
Figure 3
Relationship between BDNF concentration and hypothalamic volume in obese subjects. Plasma BDNF was measured by ELISA using a multiplex plate. Hypothalamic volumes were residualized to ICV volumes to account for individual head-size variability ( females and 13 males). Obese females and obese males are represented by closed and open diamonds, respectively.
