Value of white matter hyperintensity volume and total white matter volume for evaluating cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral small-vessel disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023 BackgroundWhite matter hyperintensities (WMH) are a key imaging feature of cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD). However, there is a lack of standardized methods for determining WMH volume, and the value of total white matter (WM) volume in the ...

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2013 Expansion of the cortical grey matter in evolution has been accompanied by an even faster expansion of the subcortical white matter volume and by folding of the grey matter surface, events traditionally considered to occur homogeneously across mammalian ...

White matter hyperintensities volume and cognition: A meta-analysis
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022 BackgroundCerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is prevalent in the elderly and leads to an increased risk of cognitive impairment and dementia. The volume of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) increases with age, which affects cognition.ObjectiveTo ...

Relationships of inflammation trajectories with white matter volume and integrity in midlife. [PDF]
Brain Behav Immun, 2021 Elevated inflammation is associated with worse late-life cognitive functioning and brain health. Our goal was to examine the relationship between inflammation trajectories and white matter integrity in midlife.Participants were 508 adults from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults Study (CARDIA; 51% female).

White matter volume and white/gray matter ratio in mammalian species as a consequence of the universal scaling of cortical folding. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019 Because the white matter of the cerebral cortex contains axons that connect distant neurons in the cortical gray matter, the relationship between the volumes of the 2 cortical compartments is key for information transmission in the brain.

White matter lesions and brain gray matter volume in cognitively normal elders [PDF]
Neurobiology of Aging, 2012 Cerebral white matter lesions (WMLs) reflect small vessel disease, are common in elderly individuals, and are associated with cognitive impairment. We sought to determine the relationships between WMLs, age, gray matter (GM) volume, and cognition in the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS).

Physical Fitness, White Matter Volume and Academic Performance in Children: Findings From the ActiveBrains and FITKids2 Projects [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Objectives: The aims of this study were (i) to examine the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and white matter volume and test whether those associations differ between normal-weight and overweight/obese children (ii) to analyze the ...
