Body mass index

1 study
  1. Body mass index is associated with DRD2 change in humans (r = 0.23).

    “lower BMI at baseline were associated with faster 5-year DRD2 decline in the putamen (r = -0.17, p < 0.05) and caudate (r = 0.23, p < 0.05), respectively.”

1 study
  1. Systolic blood pressure is associated with DRD2 change in humans (r = −0.17).

    “Higher systolic blood pressure and lower BMI at baseline were associated with faster 5-year DRD2 decline in the putamen (r = -0.17, p < 0.05)”
