Background: Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), as defined by neuroimaging characteristics such as white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), cerebral microhemorrhages (CMHs), and lacunar infarcts, is highly prevalent and has been associated with dementia risk and other clinical sequelae. Although risk factors for cSVD have been identified, little is known about the biological processes and molecular mediators that influence cSVD development and progression.
Methods: Within the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, we used SomaScan Multiplexed Proteomic technology to relate 4,877 plasma proteins to concurrently measured MRI-defined cSVD characteristics, including WMHs, CMHs, and lacunar infarcts, in late-life (n=1508; mean age: 76).

Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Brazil.
Background: Midlife hypertension (HTN) is a known risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, it remains to be elucidated whether the effect of late-life HTN is also present. Here, we aimed to assess the associations of late-life HTN and amyloid-β pathology (Aβ) with longitudinal changes in global cognition and different domains in cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals.
