The Role of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in White Matter Tract Microstructure: A Multi‐Cohort Study in Older Adults

AAIC 2025 Abstract

Abstract

Background: Vascular risk factors (VRF) exert deleterious effects on the vasculature throughout the body, including cerebrovasculature. These effects are characterized by structural and functional alterations in the cerebrovasculature, which in turn, may impact white matter (WM) microstructure.
