Structural brain changes and cognition in relation to markers of vascular dysfunction
The aim was to investigate the relationship between blood markers of vascular dysfunction with brain microstructural changes and cognition. Eighty-six participants from the Barcelona-Asymptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis (AsIA) neuropsychology study were included. Subjects were 50–65 years old,...

The aim was to investigate the relationship between blood markers of vascular dysfunction with brain microstructural changes and cognition.
