Vascular Dysfunction in Leukoaraiosis [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology, 2016
The pathogenesis of leukoaraiosis has long been debated. This work addresses a less well-studied mechanism, cerebrovascular reactivity, which could play a leading role in the pathogenesis of this disease. Our aim was to evaluate blood flow dysregulation and its relation to leukoaraiosis.Cerebrovascular reactivity, the change in the blood oxygen level ...

Leukoaraiosis and intracerebral hematoma. [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 1989
We studied 33 consecutive patients with computed tomographic findings of decreased density in the periventricular white matter (leukoaraiosis). Computed tomograms in five (aged 56-75 years) of the 33 demonstrated intracerebral hematoma. The hemorrhages were situated in the thalamic area in four and in the parietotemporal area in one patient. These five

Clinical characterization of symptomatic microangiopathic brain lesions

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2011
Background: Microangiopathic brain lesions can be separated in diffuse lesions - leukoaraiosis - and focal lesions - lacunes. Leukoaraiosis and lacunes are caused by common cerebrovascular risk factors, but whether they represent a common entity is not ...

Mediating roles of leukoaraiosis and infarcts in the effects of unilateral carotid artery stenosis on cognition

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Background and objectivesLeukoaraiosis and infarcts are common in patients with carotid artery stenosis (CAS), and CAS severity, leukoaraiosis and infarcts all have been implicated in cognitive impairments.

C-Reactive Protein and Cognition Are Unrelated to Leukoaraiosis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Elevated serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) have been associated with leukoaraiosis in elderly brain. However, several studies indicate that leukoaraiosis is associated with an increased risk of cognitive impairment. It is unknown how the effect of

Aggressive blood pressure reduction is not associated with decreased perfusion in leukoaraiosis regions in acute intracerebral hemorrhage patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Leukoaraiosis regions may be more vulnerable to decreases in cerebral perfusion. We aimed to assess perfusion in leukoaraiosis regions in acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients.

Physiotherapy in leukoaraiosis

open access: yesInternational journal of health sciences, 2022
The human brain is a complex structure having a plethora of functions. The human beings utilize their brain according to their need and requirement. Any injury or disease, whether caused due to degeneration or the mishap (Road traffic accident, fall from height) may lead to ischemia or necrosis of the neurons.

Leukoaraiosis [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2003
Background— Leukoaraiosis, a term that defines an abnormal appearance of the subcortical white matter of the brain on neuroimaging (bilateral patchy or diffuse areas of low attenuation on CT or hyperintense T2 MR areas), has gained evidence in retrospective studies to demonstrate its association with stroke and in prospective ...

Topologic Efficiency Abnormalities of the Connectome in Asymptomatic Patients with Leukoaraiosis

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Leukoaraiosis (LA) is commonly found in aging healthy people but its pathophysiological mechanism is not entirely known. Furthermore, there is still a lack of effective pathological biomarkers that can be used to identify the early stage of LA.

Dynamic functional connections in leukoaraiosis patients without cognitive impairment: A pilot study

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
PurposeLeukoaraiosis (LA) is a major public issue that affects elderly adults. However, the underlying neuropathological mechanism of LA without cognitive impairment requires examination.
