Lean mass index is positively associated with white matter volumes in several brain regions in children with overweight/obesity.

Summary: Background: The relationship of obesity with grey and white matter volumes has been examined in several studies, and the results are decidedly mixed. Objective: To investigate the associations of body mass index (BMI), fat mass index (FMI) and lean mass index (LMI) with total and regional g...

      ab: Summary: Background: The relationship of obesity with grey and white matter volumes has been examined in several studies, and the results are decidedly mixed. Objective: To investigate the associations of body mass index (BMI), fat mass index (FMI) and lean mass index (LMI) with total and regional grey and white matter volumes. Methods: This is a cross‐sectional study involving 100 children (60% boys) with overweight/obesity. T1‐weighted images were acquired using magnetic resonance imaging. Dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry was used to measure body composition. Separate hierarchical regression analyses were performed between predictor variables (BMI, FMI and LMI) and the total brain volumes including sex, years from peak height velocity and parental education as covariates. In addition, FMI was added as a covariate when LMI was the predictor and vice versa. Statistical analyses of imaging data were performed using three whole‐brain voxel‐wise multiple regression models and adjusted by the same covariates. Results: LMI was positively associated with white matter in numerous regions and to a lower extent, with grey matter regions. Further, the relationship between LMI, and grey and white matter regions was independent of FMI levels. Conclusions: LMI seems to be a positive predictor of regional white matter volumes in children with overweight/obesity.
