    Abstract Post-stroke cognitive impairment is related to the effects of the acute stroke and pre-stroke brain health. We tested whether diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can detect acute, global effects of stroke and predict post-stroke cognitive performance. Patients with stroke or TIA enrolled in a prospective cohort study were included if they had 1) at least one DTI acquisition at acute presentation, 24 hours, 5 days, or 30 days, and 2) follow-up testing with the telephone Montreal Cognitive Assessment (T-MoCA) at 30 and/or 90 days. A whole brain, white-matter skeleton excluding the infarct was used to derive mean global DTI measures for mean diffusivity (MD), fractional anisotropy (FA), free water (FW), FW-corrected MD (MD

    Abstract Background: The progression of FLAIR white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on MRI heralds vascular-mediated cognitive decline. Even before FLAIR WMH progression, adjacent normal appearing white matter (NAWM) already demonstrates microstructural deterioration on diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). We hypothesized that elevated DTI free water (FW) would precede FLAIR WMH progression, implicating interstitial fluid accumulation as a key pathological step in the progression of cerebral small vessel disease.
    Methods: Participants at least 3 months after an ischemic stroke or TIA with WMH on MRI underwent serial brain MRIs every 3 months over the subsequent year. For each participant, the WMHs were automatically segmented, serial MRIs were aligned, and a region of WMH penumbra tissue at risk was defined by dilating lesions at any time point and subtracting baseline lesions. Penumbra voxels were classified as either stable or progressing to WMH if they were segmented as new lesions and demonstrated increasing FLAIR intensity over time. Aligned DTI images included FW and FW-corrected fractional anisotropy (FA
    Results: In the included participants (
    Discussion: Baseline increased interstitial fluid, estimated as FW on DTI, predicted the progression of NAWM to WMH over the following year. These results implicate the presence of FW in the pathogenesis of cerebral small vessel disease progression.

    Abstract Background: Brain perivascular spaces (PVS) are part of the glymphatic system and facilitate clearance of metabolic byproducts. Since enlarged PVS are associated with vascular health, we tested whether intensive systolic blood pressure (SBP) treatment affects PVS structure.
    Methods: This is a secondary analysis of the Systolic PRessure INtervention Trial (SPRINT) MRI Substudy: a randomized trial of intensive SBP treatment to goal < 120 mm Hg vs < 140 mm Hg. Participants had increased cardiovascular risk, pre-treatment SBP 130-180, and no clinical stroke, dementia, or diabetes. Brain MRIs acquired at baseline and follow-up were used to automatically segment PVS in the supratentorial white matter and basal ganglia using a Frangi filtering method. PVS volumes were quantified as a fraction of the total tissue volume. The effects of SBP treatment group and major antihypertensive classes on PVS volume fraction were separately tested using linear mixed-effects models while covarying for MRI site, age, sex, Black race, baseline SBP, history of cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic kidney disease, and white matter hyperintensities (WMH).
    Results: For 610 participants with sufficient quality MRI at baseline (mean age 67 ± 8, 40 % female, 32 % Black), greater PVS volume fraction was associated with older age, male sex, non-Black race, concurrent CVD, WMH, and brain atrophy. For 381 participants with MRI at baseline and at follow-up (median ± IQR = 3.9 ± 0.4 years), intensive treatment was associated with decreased PVS volume fraction relative to standard treatment (interaction coefficient: -0.029 [-0.055 to -0.0029] p = 0.029). Reduced PVS volume fraction was also associated with exposure to calcium channel blockers (CCB).
    Conclusions: PVS enlargement was partially reversed in the intensive SBP treatment group. The association with CCB use suggests that improved vascular compliance may be partly responsible. Improved vascular health may facilitate glymphatic clearance. Clincaltrials.gov: NCT01206062.

    Abstract Prior work in the Northern Manhattan Study (NOMAS) identified impaired cognition in cross-sectional analyses and more rapid memory decline in individuals with evidence of prior common infectious disease exposures. In this study, we sought to determine the cross-sectional relationship between prior exposure to cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2, Chlamydia pneumoniae, and Helicobacter pylori and three magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures (whole-brain cortical thickness, a previously validated AD signature, and hippocampal volume) in 455 NOMAS participants. We performed confounder-adjusted linear regression analyses between neuroimaging scores and both continuous serologies and categorical seropositivity of each pathogen, as well as a combined infectious burden index (IBI). We identified that increased serologic titers of herpes simplex virus 2 were associated with reduced whole-brain cortical thickness, and a combined score of HSV-2 and C. pneumoniae displayed an additive effect on reduced cortical thickness. Our findings suggest herpes simplex virus 2 seropositivity may contribute to accelerated brain aging, possibly resulting in an increased vulnerability to cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative disease in aging populations.
