Is dementia incidence declining?: Trends in dementia incidence since 1990 in the Rotterdam Study.

TL;DR: This study suggests that dementia incidence has decreased between 1990 and 2005, and participants in 2005–2006 had larger total brain volumes and less cerebral small vessel disease than participants in 1995–1996.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of dementia-free persons (n = 9,232) identified 46 SNPs at four loci with P values of <4.0 × 10(-7).
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in Normal-Appearing White Matter Precede Development of White Matter Lesions

TL;DR: White matter changes in NAWM are present and can be quantified on diffusion tensor imaging and FLAIR before WML develop, suggesting that WML development gradually, and that visually appreciable WML are only the tip of the iceberg of white matter pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI

High Blood Pressure and Cerebral White Matter Lesion Progression in the General Population

TL;DR: High blood pressure is established to precede WMLs and implies that hypertension treatment could reduce WML progression in the general population, as well as evaluating whether treatment of hypertension is related to less W ML progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
