White matter hyperintensities and subclinical infarction: associations with psychomotor speed and cognitive flexibility.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We examined white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV) and subclinical infarction (no history of clinical stroke; SI) in relation to performance on tests of sequencing, cognitive flexibility, and sensorimotor ability. METHODS The Northern Manhattan Study includes a stroke-free community-based sample of Hispanic, Black, and White participants. A subsample (n=656) has unde...
متن کاملMigraine, white matter hyperintensities, and subclinical brain infarction in a diverse community: the northern Manhattan study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Migraine with aura is a risk factor for ischemic stroke. The goals of this study are to examine the association between migraine and subclinical cerebrovascular damage in a race/ethnically diverse older population-based cohort study. METHODS In the Northern Manhattan Study (NOMAS), we quantified subclinical brain infarctions and white matter hyperintensity volumes among...
متن کاملAttenuation of brain white matter hyperintensities after cerebral infarction.
Cerebral Infarction Brain white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on MR imaging are reported to increase with age and do not decrease, though their pathogenesis is not well understood. Here, we report an interesting case in which a patient showed attenuation of WMHs at 1 year after the incidence of cerebral infarction. A 78-year-old female outpatient with hypertension and dyslipidemia presented wi...
متن کاملMTI of white matter hyperintensities.
The severity of tissue changes associated with incidental white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in the elderly cannot be sufficiently determined by conventional MRI. We, therefore, performed a regional analysis of the magnetization transfer ratio (MTR) maps obtained on a 1.5 T scanner from 198 neurologically asymptomatic participants of the Austrian Stroke Prevention Study (mean age 70, age range...
متن کاملWhite matter hyperintensities in migraine
Case-control studies showed that migraine is associated with ischemic stroke. Studies assessing the prevalence of white matter lesions (WML) in migraine however, reported conflicting results, possibly attributable to selection bias by recruiting only severe cases. We conducted a population-based MRI study of migraineurs with aura (N=161), migraineurs without aura (N=134) and controls (N=140), 3...
