Quantitative susceptibility mapping links brain iron and neurodegenerative proteins to cognitive decline in CSVD.

Increased brain iron deposition negatively affects cognition, particularly executive function and memory, in CSVD patients.
Elevated QSM values correlate with lower levels of Aβ42, indicating a link between brain iron and neurodegenerative protein levels in CSVD.
The study analyzed 319 CSVD patients, using quantitative susceptibility mapping and plasma neurodegenerative proteins to assess associations over time.
Aβ40 levels may predict future increases in brain iron, highlighting its potential role as a biomarker for disease progression in CSVD.

Chen et al. (2025) studied this question.
