Article Synopsis
- White Matter Lesions (WML) are common in older adults and can vary in impact based on the underlying neurodegenerative disease, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
- A study of 137 subjects revealed that those with Alzheimer's and Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) had significantly more WML than healthy controls and those with Parkinson’s disease, though the latter also showed increased WML volumes.
- The type and location of WML were found to influence cognitive decline differently in each group, indicating that the effects of WML on cognition are not the same across all neurodegenerative conditions.
