White Matter Hyperintensities and Working Memory: An Explorative Study [PDF]

open access: yesAging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition, 2008
White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are commonly observed in elderly people and may have the most profound effect on executive functions, including working memory. Surprisingly, the Digit Span backward, a frequently employed working memory task, reveals no association with WMH. In the present study, it was investigated whether more detailed analyses of

Venous Collagenosis as Pathogenesis of White Matter Hyperintensity

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, 2022
ObjectivePeriventricular white matter hyperintensities (pvWMHs) are commonly observed on MRI in older individuals and are associated with cognitive and motor decline. The etiology of pvWMH remains unknown. Venous collagenosis has been implicated, which may also interfere with perivascular fluid flow leading to dilation of perivascular spaces (PVS ...

White Matter Hyperintensities: Initial Assessments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The white matter hyperintensities (WMH, leucoaraiosis) represent the most common kind of ischemic vascular lesion of the white matter due to small vessel diseases, and occurs frequently in the elderly. Consequent to the neuroimaging identification arouse

Late-life depression, heart failure and frontal white matter hyperintensity: a structural magnetic resonance imaging study

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2005
The relevance of the relationship between cardiac disease and depressive symptoms is well established. White matter hyperintensity, a bright signal area in the brain on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging scans, has been separately associated with ...

Morphological Brain Changes after Climbing to Extreme Altitudes--A Prospective Cohort Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Findings of cerebral cortical atrophy, white matter lesions and microhemorrhages have been reported in high-altitude climbers. The aim of this study was to evaluate structural cerebral changes in a large cohort of climbers after an ascent to extreme ...

White mater hyperintensities and microplastics

open access: yesISMRM Annual Meeting
Motivation: White matter hyperintensities are abnormalities that appear in MRI scans of living patients but are not apparent in MRI post-mortem. Goal(s): Our goal is to understand the cellular/biological basis of white matter hyperintensities. Approach: We aligned post-mortem MR scans with those collected antemortem preformed histopathology and pyrGC ...

Cerebral White Matter Hyperintensity as a Healthcare Quotient [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
To better understand the risk factors and optimal therapeutic strategies of cerebral white matter hyperintensity (WMH), we examined a large population of adults with and without various vascular risk factors (VRFs) or vascular risk conditions (VRCs), such as hypertension (HT), diabetes mellitus (DM), and dyslipidemia (DLP), including the comorbidities.

Waxing and waning of white matter hyperintensities

open access: yesNeurology, 2017
Small vessel disease (SVD) manifests in myriad ways, most prominently as white matter hyperintensities (WMH).1,2 By the age of 60 years, virtually every healthy individual has evidence of WMH,3 and those with ischemic stroke have even more extensive changes.4 Cerebral ischemic injury from occlusion or stenosis of deep penetrating arteries due to ...
