Article

A bivariate genetic analysis of cerebral white matter hyperintensities and cognitive performance in elderly male twins.

Neurobiology of aging - 1 Jan 2000

Carmelli Dorit, Reed Terry, DeCarli Charles

Abstract excerpt

White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are frequently observed on MRI scans of elderly nondemented people and have been associated in the past with cognitive impairment and physical dysfunction. Individual differences in the prevalence and severity of WMHs have been documented and more recently we...
