- - The study investigates the link between silent brain infarcts (SBI) and leukoaraiosis in middle-aged ischemic stroke patients, finding a significant association between the two conditions in a sample of 50 individuals.
- - Out of the participants, 52% showed signs of leukoaraiosis, with over 65% of those also having SBI, and a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) was noted among the group.
- - The research emphasizes that leukoaraiosis is a critical risk factor for SBI, indicating that enhanced imaging methods can help in diagnosing cerebrovascular conditions related to age and hypertension, though further studies are needed for improved understanding and treatment.
