| Abstract | Objectives Vascular mechanisms underlying brain atrophy and white matter lesions (WML) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are unknown. Increased exercising blood pressure (BP) is associated with end-organ damage and could explain these brain abnormalities. This study examined associations between exercise central haemodynamics and brain structure. Methods Forty healthy participants (53±9 years; 50% male) and 40 T2DM (62±9 years; 50% male) were examined at rest and during light exercise. Resting and exercise central haemodynamics, including systolic BP (SBP), pulse pressure (PP) augmented pressure (AP), augmentation index (AIx), aortic stiffness and aortic reservoir function (including excess pressure integral [xsP]) were recorded by tonometry. Segmented grey (GM) and white matter (WM) and WML volumes were derived from magnetic resonance imaging. Results T2DM participants had lower WM (p=0.004) and GM (p=0.07) volumes, and significant elevation of all central hemodynamic variables during exercise (p<0.01 all). At rest, greater central (not brachial) haemodynamics (SBP, AP, AIx and PP) were independently associated with greater WML volume (β=0.54, p=0.031, β=0.55, p=0.01; β=0.46, p=0.046 and; p=0.48, p=0.01, respectively) in controls (not T2DM). During exercise, increased xsP was independently associated with reduced WM (β =-0.54, p=0.006) and GM (β=-0.63, p=0.013) volumes only in T2DM independent of age, sex, heart rate, and 24-hour ambulatory SBP. Conclusions In T2DM, aortic reservoir function and transmission of excess pressure during exercise is associated with brain atrophy. These findings suggest that vascular mechanisms underlying structural brain changes may differ between healthy individuals and those with T2DM.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
