Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on the Hispanic/Latino population, one of the largest groups in the U.S. at high risk for dementia, examining how cognitive performance relates to brain health over time.
- - Researchers analyzed data from nearly 2,000 participants across two visits, finding that lower scores in episodic and working memory were linked to more severe brain changes, like increased white matter hyperintensity and decreased hippocampal volume.
- - The results suggest that understanding cognitive risk profiles in this group could help with early detection and intervention for neurodegenerative conditions, potentially influencing their progression.
Background And Purpose: Epidemiological studies of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) have consistently demonstrated variation in incidence, location, age at presentation, and outcomes among non-Hispanic white, black, and Hispanic populations. We report here the design and methods for this large, prospective, multi-center case-control study of ICH.
Methods: The Ethnic/Racial Variations of Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ERICH) study is a multi-center, prospective case-control study of ICH.
