Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kam-Tat Leung"
- Kam-Tat Leung's research primarily focuses on the intersection of cerebrovascular health, cognitive impairment, and anticoagulation strategies, particularly in the Asian population, as evidenced by studies on cerebral white matter lesions, microbleeds, and their implications for dementia and stroke risks.
- His findings reveal a significant burden of cerebral white matter lesions across Asian cities, linking these lesions to increased risks of cognitive decline and highlighting the importance of regular physical activities to mitigate cognitive impacts for patients post-stroke.
- Leung's studies also contribute to the development of reliable cognitive assessment tools, like alternate versions of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, and explore the associations between anticoagulant therapies and brain microbleeds to inform better clinical practices for managing atrial fibrillation and its complications.
