Depression in small-vessel disease relates to white matter ultrastructural damage, not disability. [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether cerebral small-vessel disease (SVD) is a specific risk factor for depression, whether any association is mediated via white matter damage, and to study the role of depressive symptoms and disability on quality of life (QoL)

Regulation of microglial TMEM119 and P2RY12 immunoreactivity in multiple sclerosis white and grey matter lesions is dependent on their inflammatory environment

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of acquired neurological disability in young adults, pathologically characterized by leukocyte infiltration of the central nervous system, demyelination of the white and grey matter, and subsequent axonal ...

Cognitive state following stroke: the predominant role of preexisting white matter lesions.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Background and purposeStroke is a major cause of cognitive impairment and dementia in adults, however the role of the ischemic lesions themselves, on top of other risk factors known in the elderly, remains controversial.

Effects of white matter injury on resting state fMRI measures in prematurely born infants. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The cerebral white matter is vulnerable to injury in very preterm infants (born prior to 30 weeks gestation), resulting in a spectrum of lesions. These range from severe forms, including cystic periventricular leukomalacia and periventricular hemorrhagic

Epidemiology of White-Matter Lesions

International Psychogeriatrics, 2003
This is an overview of the prevalence of, and risk factors for white matter lesions in older persons. The prevalence of white matter lesions is high and increases with age. Most risk factors that have been examined in association with white matter lesions are similar to those for cardiovascular disease, including elevated blood pressure, diabetes ...
