Description

Antoine Trammell and a large team of co-authors study bright spots seen on brain scans of older adults. Their study, from two thousand twenty-five, uses data from more than three thousand people from three racial and ethnic groups. Such spots in the white matter of the brain are linked to small vessel disease and to memory loss risk.

Black and Hispanic adults in the study were younger on average and had higher body weight. Health traits such as blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol were compared across groups. The team then tested which health conditions tracked the total volume of the bright spots. The aim is to see whether vessel health helps explain gaps in dementia risk between groups.
