First CAA-related hemorrhagic lesions
upin humans1HR 2.85
Severe enlarged perivascular spaces in the centrum semiovale predicts first CAA-related hemorrhagic lesions in humans (33.7% versus 13.6%; adjusted HR 2.85, 95% CI 1.91–4.25).
“33.7% of those with severe EPVS-CSO developed incident CAA-related hemorrhagic lesions compared with 13.6% of those with nonsevere EPVS-CSO (adjusted HR 2.85, 95% CI 1.91-4.25; p < 0.0001).”
