Clinical and Biological Correlates of White Matter Hyperintensities in Patients With Behavioral-Variant Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer Disease
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) and Alzheimer disease (AD) are associated with disease variables such as disease severity, cortical atrophy, and cognition, we conducted a cross-sectional brain MRI study with volumetric and voxel-wise analyses. METHODS: A total of 129 patients (64 bvFTD, 65 AD) and 66 controls underwent high-resolution brain MRI and clinical and neuropsychological examination. Genetic screening was conducted in 124 cases (54 bvFTD, 44 AD, 26 controls) and postmortem pathology was available in 18 cases (13 bvFTD, 5 AD). WMH were extracted using an automated segmentation algorithm and analyses of total volumes and spatial distribution were conducted. Group differences in total WMH volume and associations with vascular risk and disease severity were examined. Syndrome-specific voxel-wise associations between WMH, cortical atrophy, and performance across different cognitive domains were assessed. RESULTS: Total WMH volumes were larger in patients with bvFTD than patients with AD and controls. In bvFTD, WMH volumes were associated with disease severity but not vascular risk. Patients with bvFTD and patients with AD showed distinct spatial patterns of WMH that mirrored characteristic patterns of cortical atrophy. Regional WMH load correlated with worse cognitive performance in discrete cognitive domains. WMH-related cognitive impairments were shared between syndromes, with additional associations found in bvFTD. CONCLUSION: Increased WMH are common in patients with bvFTD and patients with AD. Our findings suggest that WMH are partly independent of vascular pathology and associated with the neurodegenerative process. WMH occur in processes independent of and related to cortical atrophy. Furthermore, increased WMH in different regions contributes to cognitive deficits.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
