Brief cognitive assessment for patients with cerebral small vessel disease.
BACKGROUND Cerebral small vessel disease is a common cause of cognitive impairment and vascular dementia. The cognitive deficit differs from that in Alzheimer's disease, with greater executive/attentional dysfunction and relatively intact episodic memory. OBJECTIVE To develop brief assessment tools that are better adapted to the neuropsychological profile of cerebral small vessel disease. M...
متن کاملThe Neuroimaging Assessment Progress of Cognitive Impairment Associated with Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is the most common vascular cause of cognitive impairment, which refers to a group of ischemic and hemorrhagic changes that mainly affect the small arteries and arterioles. Features seen on neuroimaging include white matter hyperintensities, lacunar infarction, cerebral microbleed and enlarged perivascular space, which can be assessed by both quantitative an...
متن کاملSublingual microvascular changes in patients with cerebral small vessel disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It is unknown whether changes in cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) are limited to the brain or part of a generalized vascular disorder. METHODS We examined the sublingual microcirculation of 10 healthy controls, 10 patients with large vessel disease, and 8 with SVD, with side-stream dark field imaging. We analyzed 146 video fragments masked to the origin of the videos...
متن کاملThrombolysis in acute stroke patients with cerebral small vessel disease.
BACKGROUND Thrombolytic treatment is of proven benefit in acute ischemic stroke. The term cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) refers to a group of pathological processes affecting the small arteries, arterioles, venules and capillaries of the brain, and encompasses both ischemic and hemorrhagic lesions. Lacunar stroke, an expression of SVD, is associated with an unfavorable long-term prognosis ...
متن کاملHypertension-Induced Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Leading to Cognitive Impairment
Objective Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia are responsible for more than 80% of dementia cases. These two conditions share common risk factors including hypertension. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is strongly associated with both hypertension and cognitive impairment. In this review, we identify the pathophysiological changes in CSVD that are caused by hypertension and further e...
