Association of Cardiovascular Risk Factors With MRI Indices of Cerebrovascular Structure and Function and White Matter Hyperintensities in Young Adults

Abstract: In this preliminary study involving young adults without clinical evidence of cerebrovascular disease, a greater number of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors at recommended levels was associated with higher cerebral vessel density and caliber, higher cerebral blood flow, and fewer white matter hyperintensities. Further research is needed to verify these findings and determine their clinical importance.

“…The neurodegeneration of AD-signature regions was measured by both MRI and [ 18 F] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET imaging. Cerebral white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on MRI were used as a measure of cerebrovascular injury [33,34]. Additionally, we explored the associations between other categories of alcohol intake and the neuroimaging biomarkers mentioned above.…”

“…Astrocytes and oligodendrocytes express store‐operated calcium entry (SOCE) channels TRPM3 and Orai/Stim, which are essential for glial Ca 2+ calcium signaling and play a role in the conduction, physiological, and pathological, such as in multiple sclerosis, stroke, and traumatic injury . A recent clinical study demonstrated that less white matter hyperintensities on MRI were closely related to a greater cerebral vascular density and diameter and a higher cerebral blood flow (Figures and ) …”

“…Cardiocerebral vascular diseases (CCVDs), including thrombosis, atherosclerosis, hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke, and cerebral ischemia, are the major health problem all over the world, claiming more than 17.3 million lives annually [1][2][3]. Given the high incidence and high mortality of CCVDs, seeking feasible prevention and treatment strategy is highly imperative and critical to human health [4,5].…”
