Task-evoked deactivations: dissociation between BOLD fMRI and FDG

The paper investigates task-evoked BOLD fMRI deactivations and finds that they do not correlate with decreased glucose consumption, suggesting metabolic stability or increase in these regions.

Hyperglycemia selectively increases cerebral non-oxidative glucose consumption without affecting blood flow

The paper shows acute hyperglycemia increases non-oxidative glucose consumption in specific brain regions without altering cerebral blood flow or oxygen metabolism.

Brain aerobic glycolysis and resilience in Alzheimer disease

This study finds that preserved aerobic glycolysis in the brain is linked to resilience against Alzheimer's disease pathology, while white matter hyperintensity burden is associated with reduced youthful AG patterns.
