Arterial hypertension and β-amyloid accumulation have spatially overlapping effects on posterior white matter hyperintensity volume: A cross-sectional study
Abstract:ImportancePosterior white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in subjects across the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) spectrum with minimal vascular pathology suggests that amyloid pathology —not just arterial hypertension— impacts WMH, adversely influencing cognition.ObjectiveTo characterise the effects of AD pathology, namely β-amyloid (Aβ) and hypertension on WMH and cognition.DesignCross-sectional and longitudinalSettingMulticentreParticipantsWe analysed data from subjects with normal cognition (NC), subjective cognitiv… Show more
