The subtype of stroke had similar effects in multiple health domains, while patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) had worse adjusted outcomes, suggesting that the mechanisms for outcomes after TIA may differ from those of other cerebrovascular events.
Patients with hypertension with progression of periventricular white matter hyperintensities have an increased risk for incident mild cognitive impairment.
An artificial intelligence system can diagnose and classify intracranial hemorrhage.
A miniaturized optical coherence tomography imaging needle can detect blood vessels intraoperatively in the human brain in vivo.
Systematic review and meta-analysis provides evidence that white matter hyperintensities, brain infarcts, and cerebral microbleeds indicate a significant increased risk for stroke, dementia, and death in community-dwelling older adults.
Systemic vascular health measured as a composite of recent cardiovascular and metabolic chronic conditions was associated with medial temporal lobe thinning, widespread cerebral hypoperfusion, and poor microstructural integrity.
Culturally tailored, skills-based strategies may be an important alternative to knowledge-focused approaches in achieving sustained vascular risk reduction and addressing racial/ethnic stroke disparities.
Diabetes and smoking are vascular risk factors associated with hippocampal calcification in older patients with memory issues.
The investigators sought to explore how aortic stiffening is linked to resting cerebral blood flow and cerebrovascular reactivity in older adults.
Inability to balance on one foot for 20-seconds was associated with cerebral small-vessel disease and cognitive decline.
