Description
Kevin Gonzalez and co-authors study diabetes and brain scans in Latino adults in a 2025 paper. Latino communities in the United States face about twice the dementia risk of white adults. Diabetes is more common in these communities, and many cases go unseen. The team asks how much diabetes explains the bright spots and shrinkage that scans show in the aging brain.
The data come from a large health study of Latino adults in several cities. About 2,800 people had brain scans, most of them over age fifty. Blood sugar tests sorted people into normal, early, and full diabetes groups. Scan measures covered total brain size and key memory regions. The work may show why dementia risk runs high and where care can help.
