Maximal brain size remains an important predictor of cognition in old age, independent of current brain pathology

TL;DR: Investigation of maximal brain development and measures of brain injury/atrophy jointly contribute to cognitive function in older people suggest maximal brain size as measured by ICV was related to semantic memory, executive function, and spatial ability independent of current brain volumes.

Patent Foramen Ovale, Subclinical Cerebrovascular Disease and Ischemic Stroke in a Population-Based Cohort

TL;DR: In this community-based cohort of stroke-free individuals over age 39, PFO was not associated with an increased risk of clinical stroke or subclinical cerebrovascular disease.

Myelin Injury and Degraded Myelin Vesicles in Alzheimer’s Disease

TL;DR: Brains from patients with Alzheimer's disease had significant loss of intact MBP, and an increase in degraded MBP in periventricular WM adjacent to a denuded ependymal layer, which is associated in part with vesicles particularly in perivavel WM that is adjacent to areas of ependedymal injury.

A technique for single-channel MR brain tissue segmentation: Application to a pediatric sample

TL;DR: Segmentation of MR brain scans of 105 healthy children and adolescents showed that although the total brain volume was stable over age 4-18, white matter increased and gray matter decreased significantly, and white matter volume increased the most in superior and posterior regions and laterality effects were seen in hemisphere tissue volumes.
