Characterization of White Matter Hyperintensities in Large-Scale MRI-Studies
Background: White matter hyperintensities of presumed vascular origin (WMH) are a common finding in elderly people and a growing social malady in the aging western societies. As a manifestation of cerebral small vessel disease, WMH are considered to be a

Functional connectivity of white matter as a biomarker of cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease.
ObjectiveIn vivo functional changes in white matter during the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) have not been previously reported. Our objectives are to measure changes in white matter functional connectivity (FC) in an elderly population ...

ABSTRACT Background Shwachman–Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a rare autosomal recessive ribosomopathy characterized by bone marrow failure and multisystem involvement, with emerging evidence of associated neurocognitive impairment. Methods We conducted a retrospective study of 240 individuals with biallelic Shwachman–Bodian–Diamond syndrome (SBDS) mutations

Crystallinity characterization of white matter in the human brain
Human brain tissue is a heterogeneous material, consisting of soft outer grey matter tethered internally by stiffer cords of white matter. These white matter tracts conduct electrical impulses between grey matter regions, thereby underpinning neuronal ...

Brain White Matter: A Substrate for Resilience and a Substance for Subcortical Small Vessel Disease
Age-related brain white matter disease is a form of small vessel disease (SVD) that may be associated with lacunar and other small subcortical infarcts, cerebral microbleeds, and perivascular spaces.
