[Abstract] Objective To investigate the alteration of functional connectivity (FC) between cerebellar Crus Ⅰ and the whole-brain in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI).Materials and Methods Seventy-eight T2DM patients and fifty-seven healthy subjects (HCs) matched in gender, age and years of education were prospectively collected pertaining to clinical data, neuropsychological test and rs-fMRI data. Seed-based FC analysis was calculated using bilateral cerebellar Crus Ⅰa and Crus Ⅰb as seed points. The differences of cerebellar FC values, clinical variables, differences in test scores and correlations between the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results Compared with the HCs, T2DM had presented higher scores of Beck Depression Self-assessment Questionnaire, Beck Anxiety Scale, and lower scores of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (P＜0.05); the FC between the left cerebellar Crus Ⅰa and left lingual gyrus/cerebellum Ⅳ-Ⅴ was decreased, and the FC between the right cerebellar Crus Ⅰb and right inferior frontal gyrus was increased (GRF correction, voxel-P＜0.005, cluster-P＜0.05), and the latter was positively correlated with low density lipoprotein (r=0.30, P=0.01).Conclusions The abnormal FC values of cerebellar subregions may be involved in the neuropathology of T2DM cognitive and mood dysfunction.
