Why the study?
Do cerebral perfusion and aortic stiffness predict brain atrophy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus?
Do cerebral perfusion and aortic stiffness predict brain atrophy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus?
In patients with type 1 diabetes without hypertension, total cerebral blood flow and aortic stiffness independently predict white matter brain atrophy.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Cerebral perfusion and aortic stiffness may contribute to white matter atrophy in type 1 diabetes; hypothesis-generating and requires longitudinal confirmation before practice implications.
Elderen et al. (2011) studied this question.
