The Neural Underpinnings of Disinhibited Eating Behavior in Adolescents With and Without Obesity
The brain plays an integral role in how and what people eat.
However, the brain's contribution to overeating is not well understood during sensitive developmental periods such as adolescence, when excessive weight gain and obesity prevalence are a significant concern.The proposed study will use functional magnetic resonance imaging to examine how the brain's response to excess energy is related to overeating in adolescents with and without obesity.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Sham Comparator: Energy Neutral
Bottled water (300 ml) with added fruit punch-flavored non-nutritive sweetener (aspartame) will be used as the energy neutral stimulus.
|
Energy stimulus (energy surplus v. energy neutral) will be randomly assigned at the first brain imaging visit.
At the second brain imaging visit, the participant will receive the alternate stimulus from what they received at the first brain imaging visit.
Other Names:
|
Active Comparator: Energy Surplus
300ml fruit punch-flavored Glucola (75-gram[g], Azer Scientific) will be used as the energy surplus stimulus.
|
Energy stimulus (energy surplus v. energy neutral) will be randomly assigned at the first brain imaging visit.
At the second brain imaging visit, the participant will receive the alternate stimulus from what they received at the first brain imaging visit.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Brain function
Time Frame: brain imaging visit 1 (study visit 1); 30 minutes
|
Brain function will be quantified via the blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal in the hypothalamus, insula, anterior cingulate cortex, nucleus accumbens, amygdala, and superior and inferior frontal gyri, and connectivity between these brain regions.
|
brain imaging visit 1 (study visit 1); 30 minutes

Disinhibited eating behavior
Time Frame: study visit 2; 1.5 hours
|
Disinhibited eating behavior will be quantified via the kilocalories consumed during the test meal phase of the Eating in the Absence of Hunger laboratory protocol.
