- The primary outcomes of this aim will be the change in fMRI response in the hypothalamus to IV glucose, to IV glucose during intralipid infusion, and to the IV glucose alone, in the lean and obese groups separately.

简要总结
The purpose of this study is to identify how certain parts of the brain that control appetite respond to changes in dietary carbohydrate and fat.
详细描述
To measure fMRI signal change in hypothalamic and brainstem centers associated with control of food intake and energy expenditure in response to IV glucose, fructose, and saline. The fMRI response to these nutrients will then be compared in obese vs. lean subjects. Frequently timed blood samples will be obtained for measurement of nutrients (i.e., glucose) and blood levels of other factors (i.e., insulin, ghrelin, lactate) during these infusion protocols, and to test associations between these levels and the fMRI response.
