Kidney function is related to cerebral small vessel disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Poor kidney function, as measured by glomerular filtration rate (GFR), is closely associated with presence of glomerular small vessel disease. Given the hemodynamic similarities between the vascular beds of the kidney and the brain, we hypothesized an association between kidney function and markers of cerebral small vessel disease on MRI. We investigated this association ...
متن کاملCerebral Small Vessel Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease, defined by a decreased glomerular filtration rate or albuminuria, is recognized as a major global health burden, mainly because it is an established risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The magnitude of the effect of chronic kidney disease on incident stroke seems to be higher in persons of Asian ethnicity. Since the kidney and brain share unique ...
متن کاملCerebral small vessel disease and kidney function predict long-term survival in patients with acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral small vessel disease reflected by white matter lesions (WMLs) in MRI and kidney function reflected by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is closely associated in patients without stroke. We studied whether eGFR and WMLs predict long-term survival in patients with acute stroke. METHODS After exclusion of patients with low eGFR (N=5 [1.3%]; <30 mL/min/1....
متن کاملC-Reactive Protein and Cerebral Small-Vessel Disease An Opportunity to Reassess Small-Vessel Disease Physiopathology?
The burden of stroke goes well beyond those cases that are clinically recognized. Imaging techniques of the brain have revealed a remarkably high prevalence of white matter lesions (WML) and silent brain lacunar infarcts (SBLI). In the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute–sponsored Cardiovascular Health Study, SBLI 3 mm were found in 31% of all subjects.1 Fewer than 15% of patients with su...
