Neural
Satiation produced significant increases in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in the vicinity of the prefrontal cortex in both lean and obese women.
Practitioners should consider the role of the prefrontal cortex in the satiation response when addressing eating behaviors.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Satiation produced significant increases in rCBF in the vicinity of the prefrontal cortex (p < 0.005).
Why this rating
The study uses measures of rCBF and a controlled experimental design.
