Key Points Question Does estradiol mitigate the negative association of visceral fat with structural brain networks and cognitive health? Findings In this cross-sectional study of a German population-based cohort of 974 adults, higher estradiol levels were associated with increased structural brain network covariance and a reduction in the negative association of visceral fat with network covariance, but only for women. In women, higher estradiol levels were associated with better structural network covariance and cognitive performance during midlife. Meaning Assessing visceral adipose tissue and hormone profiles, particularly in women during midlife, may be essential for promoting a healthy brain aging trajectory.
