Core Tip	Investigation of the existing literature on diabetes patients with gastrointestinal (GI) sym-ptoms indicates the presence of structural and fun-ctional brain changes. This was most consistent in electrophysiological studies, where especially changes in the insula seemed to correlate with GI symptoms. Imaging studies confirmed the electrophysiological findings showing microstructural changes in brain areas involved in visceral sensory processing. Due to these findings, future targets in treatment of GI symptoms in patients with diabetes may be based on modulation of central nervous system reorganisation, either pharmacologically or with afferent nerve stimulation.
