Cerebral cortical microinfarcts: A novel MRI marker of vascular brain injury in patients with heart failure
Doeschka A. Ferro,Hilde van den Brink,Raquel P Amier,Mark A. van Buchem,Jeroen de Bresser,Esther E. Bron,Hans-Peter Brunner-La Rocca,Astrid M. Hooghiemstra,Astrid M. Hooghiemstra,Nick Marcks,Albert C. van Rossum,Geert Jan Biessels +11 more
TL;DR: CMIs are a common occurrence in patients with HF and related to an adverse vascular risk factor profile and severity of cardiac dysfunction, and represent a novel marker of vascular brain injury in these patients.

Raquel P. Amier,Nick Marcks,Anna E. Leeuwis,Robert J. Nijveldt,G. Biessels,L. Jaap Kappelle,Robert J. van Oostenbrugge,R. van der Geest,M. L. Bots,W. Niessen,Jeroen de Bresser,Simon P. Mooijaart,W. M. van der Flier,H. P. Brunner-La Rocca,A C Van Rossum +14 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that subclinical cardiac dysfunction, as assessed by cardiovascular MRI, is independently associated with vascular brain injury, cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms, indicating that global cardiac performance is more closely related to poorer brain outcome than merely LV systolic function.

TL;DR: The extent of hypertensive exposure is associated with CSVD and cognitive impairment beyond clinical blood pressure or medical history, and the mediating role of CSVD suggests that hypertension may lead to cognitive impairment through the occurrence ofCSVD.
