White matter lesions have been related to affective disorders and a history of late-onset depression in psychiatric patients. Their relation with mood disturbances in the general population is not known. We investigated the relation between wh...
متن کاملSpecific anatomic associations between white matter integrity and cognitive reserve in normal and cognitively impaired elders.
OBJECTIVES to investigate the associations between white matter (WM) integrity and cognitive reserve (CR) in healthy elders (HE), amnestic mild cognitive impairment (a-MCI), and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The authors studied correlations between CR and WM integrity in regions showing WM age-related effects or pathologic changes and tested the differences of slopes between groups. METHODS diffu...

متن کاملWhite matter lesions and cognitive performance: the role of cognitively complex leisure activity.
BACKGROUND Among persons with white matter lesions (WMLs), there is a range of cognitive function. We examine whether participation in leisure activities modifies the effect of WML load on cognitive function. METHODS Data are from 2300 men and women (aged 66-92 years) participating in the population-based Age Gene/Environment Susceptibility-Reykjavik Study. Subcortical WML load was calculated...
