Vascular factors and multiple measures of early brain health: CARDIA brain MRI study.

<h4>Objective</h4>To identify early changes in brain structure and function that are associated with cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF).<h4>Design</h4>Cross-sectional brain Magnetic Resonance I (MRI) study.<h4>Setting</h4>Community based cohort in three U.S. sites...
