Genetic variants link lower segregation of brain networks to higher blood pressure and worse cognition within the general aging population

2021-08-13

Abstract excerpt

The functional architecture of the brain is composed of distinct networks, where higher system segregation, i.e. greater differentiation of such functional networks, is associated with better cognitive performance. Aging and many neurological diseases have been associated with reduced system segregation and thus cognitive impairment. The genetic basis and risk factors of system segregation are largely unknown. Her...
