Aims: The significance of the correlation of computed tomography (CT)-based cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) markers with the clinical outcomes in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA)-related intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains uncertain. Thus, this study aimed to explore the relationship between SVD markers and short-term outcomes of CAA-ICH.

Methods: A total of 183 patients with CAA-ICH admitted to the Xuanwu Hospital, and Beijing Fengtai You'anmen Hospital, from 2014 to 2021 were included. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the correlation between SVD markers based on CT and clinical outcomes at 7-day and 90-day.

Results: Of the 183 included patients, 66 (36%) were identified with severe SVD burden. The multivariate analysis showed that the total SVD burden, white matter lesion (WML) grade, and brain atrophy indicator were independent risk factors for unfavorable outcomes at 90-day. The brain atrophy indicator was independently associated with mortality at 90-day. Severe cortical atrophy was significantly associated with early neurological deterioration.

Conclusions: The neuroimaging profiles of SVD based on CT in patients with CAA-ICH might predict the short-term outcome more effectively. Further studies are required to validate these findings and identify modifiable factors for preventing CAA-ICH development.

Purpose: Fluid exchanges between perivascular spaces (PVS) and interstitium may contribute to the pathophysiology of small vessel disease (SVD). We aimed to analyze water diffusivity measures and their relationship with PVS and other SVD imaging markers.

Methods: We enrolled 50 consecutive patients with a recent small subcortical infarct.

Objectives: This study investigated the correlation between retinal vasculature and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) imaging markers, providing new evidence for the retina-brain association.

Methods: Two hundred and thirty-nine participants aged 55-85 were enrolled in the study. CSVD indicators, encompassing white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), lacunes (LAs), cerebral microbleeds (CMBs), and enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVSs), were assessed.

Objective: After a recent small subcortical infarct (RSSI), some patients develop perilesional or remote hyperintensities ('caps/tracks') to the index infarct on T2/FLAIR MRI. However, their clinical relevance remains unclear. We investigated the clinicoradiological correlates of 'caps/tracks', and their impact on long-term outcomes following RSSI.

Background: Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is the leading cause of vascular dementia. However, it is unclear whether the individual SVD or global SVD progression correlates with cognitive decline across mild cognitive impairment (MCI) subjects.

Objective: To investigate the association of small vessel disease progression with longitudinal cognitive decline across MCI.

Individual cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) markers independently predict poor prognosis after stroke. However, the impact of a single SVD, especially cumulative SVD burden, on outcomes in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after intravenous thrombolysis remains unclear. This study evaluated the occurrence of SVD in patients with AIS who were treated with intravenous thrombolytic therapy using multimodal magnetic resonance imaging.
