Abstract
MRI-visible enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) are common in patients with cognitive impairment and possibly linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). In a study of memory clinic patients (n = 450; mean age 66.5 ± 7.45, 45.8% female), we investigated CSF amyloid-β (Aβ)1-42 (AD biomarker) and strictly lobar microbleeds (CAA marker) in relation to centrum semiovale EPVS (CSO-EPVS). Age-controlled analyses showed that severe CSO-EPVS associated with Aβ status (odds ratio [OR] = 1.51, 95%CI = 1.02-2.24), but not strictly lobar microbleeds (OR = 1.39, 95%CI = 0.92-2.11), with no significant Aβ status and microbleeds interaction. This implies that in this setting, severe CSO-EPVS is not a specific indicator of CAA.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Alzheimer''s Disease (JAD) is an international multidisciplinary journal to facilitate progress in understanding the etiology, pathogenesis, epidemiology, genetics, behavior, treatment and psychology of Alzheimer''s disease. The journal publishes research reports, reviews, short communications, hypotheses, ethics reviews, book reviews, and letters-to-the-editor. The journal is dedicated to providing an open forum for original research that will expedite our fundamental understanding of Alzheimer''s disease.
