High burden of cerebral white matter lesion in 9 Asian cities

Abstract Age-related white matter lesion (WML) is considered a manifestation of sporadic cerebral small vessel disease and an important pathological substrate for dementia. Asia is notable for its large population with a looming dementia epidemic. Yet, the burden of WML and its associated risk facto...

Subjects from 9 Asian cities (Bangkok, Bandung, Beijing, Bengaluru, Hong Kong, Kaohsiung, Manila, Seoul, and Singapore) were recruited (n = 5701) and classified into (i) stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA), (ii) Alzheimer’s disease (AD)/mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or (iii) control groups.

Bandung Indonesia showed the highest prevalence of WML, adjusted for age, sex, education, disease groups, and imaging modality. Hypertension and hyperlipidemia were significant risk factors for WML, and WML was negatively associated with MMSE in all groups.
