  1. Age increases basilar artery length in humans (+0.34 mm/year [0.02; 0.65]; p = 0.037).

    “BA length was associated with age in South Asians (+0.34 mm/year [0.02; 0.65]; p = 0.037)”

  1. Basilar artery length is associated with white matter hyperintensities volume in humans (rho = 0.261; p = 0.004).

    “BA diameter (rho = 0.210; p = 0.022) and length (rho = 0.261; p = 0.004) were associated with frontal WMH load in South Asians”
