Introduction Little is known about how antecedent vascular risk factor (VRF) profiles impact
late‐life brain health. Methods We examined baseline VRFs, and cognitive testing and …

Vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID) is commonly caused by vascular
injuries in cerebral large and small vessels and is a key driver of age-related cognitive …

The field of vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID) is evolving
rapidly. Research in VCID encompasses topics aiming to understand, prevent, and treat the …

Objective: Growing evidence suggests that vascular risk factors (VRF) contribute to cognitive
decline. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of VRF on the conversion from …

For many decades during the 20th century, the common belief was that the slow
strangulation of the brains' blood supply from hardening of the brain arteries led to chronic …

Aims This study assesses the association of antihypertensive medication use on the
severities of neuropathological cerebrovascular disease (CVD excluding lobar infarction) in …

Background and purpose Small vessel disease (SVD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are two
common causes of cognitive impairment and dementia, traditionally considered as distinct …

Background Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is a frequent finding on CT and MRI scans
of elderly people and is related to vascular risk factors and cognitive and motor impairment …

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) frequently co-occurs with other brain pathologies.
Recent studies suggest there may be a mechanistic link between AD and small vessel …

Dementia is a global problem and major target for health care providers. Although up to 45%
of cases are primarily or partly due to cerebrovascular disease, little is known of these …
