Global ethnic disparities in cerebral small vessel disease imaging markers and vascular risk factors: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Ethnic disparities in cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) have been reported, but no systematic synthesis has compared markers and vascular risk factors across populations. We conducted a PROSPERO‐registered systematic review and meta‐analysis (CRD42024518105) including over two million community‐dwelling adults.
