White Matter Changes and Word Finding Failures with Increasing Age
BACKGROUND Increasing life expectancy necessitates the better understanding of the neurophysiological underpinnings of age-related cognitive changes. The majority of research examining structural-cognitive relationships in aging focuses on the role of age-related changes to grey matter integrity. In the current study, we examined the relationship between age-related changes in white matter and ...
متن کاملAge-Related White Matter Changes
Age-related white matter changes (WMC) are considered manifestation of arteriolosclerotic small vessel disease and are related to age and vascular risk factors. Most recent studies have shown that WMC are associated with a host of poor outcomes, including cognitive impairment, dementia, urinary incontinence, gait disturbances, depression, and increased risk of stroke and death. Although the cli...

Age-related white matter changes are common in the elderly and are considered as manifestation of arteriolosclerotic small vessel disease. Most recent studies have shown that the white matter changes are associated with cognitive impairment and dementia, urinary incontinence, gait disturbances, depression and increased risk of stroke and death. Although the clinical phenotypes of the white matt...
متن کاملWhite matter changes with age utilizing quantitative diffusion MRI.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between older age and mean cerebral white matter fiber bundle lengths (FBLs) in specific white matter tracts in the brain using quantified diffusion MRI. METHODS Sixty-three healthy adults older than 50 years underwent diffusion tensor imaging. Tractography tracings of cerebral white matter fiber bundles were derived from the diffusion tensor imaging ...
متن کاملCirculating endothelial progenitor cells and age-related white matter changes.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The objective was to evaluate the relationship between circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and age-related white matter changes (ARWMC). Endothelial dysfunction plays a role in the development of ARWMC. EPC incorporate into sites endothelial damage and are thought to be involved in the repair of vascular risk factor induced endothelial injury. ARWMC can be eval...
