Activity of the ACC was inversely correlated with both BMI and NDSR. A) The ACC was activated when comparing nogo trials to go trials. Slices are displayed in radiological view (right is on the viewer’s left). B) Scatter plot showed the correlation between ACC activation and BMI. C) Scatter plot showed the correlation between ACC activation and high-calorie food consumption tested by NDSR. ACC: anterior cingulate cortex; BMI: body mass index; NDSR: nutrition data system for research.
