Periventricular white matter hyperintensities

1. Periventricular white matter hyperintensities mediate memory functioning in humans (β = -4.1, 95% CI -8.7 to -0.2, p < 0.05).

   “Periventricular WMH volume mediated the effect of dipping status and hypertension on memory (β = -4.1, 95% confidence interval -8.7 to -0.2, p < 0.05).”

1. Reverse dipping is associated with periventricular white matter hyperintensities in humans (F 2,423 = 3.78, p = 0.024).

   “Reverse dipping in the presence of hypertension was associated with particularly elevated periventricular WMH volume (F 2,423 = 3.78, p = 0.024)”
