Sex differences in white matter hyperintensity pathophysiology

Taken together, our results show nuanced sex-specific effects in WMHs. There are clear spatial differences, with females having more WMHs but similar pathophysiological effects in anterior WMHs, while males show higher WMH volumes but lower pathophysiological effects in posterior WMHs.

Abstract

Taken together, our results show nuanced sex-specific effects in WMHs. There are clear spatial differences, with females having more WMHs but similar pathophysiological effects in anterior WMHs, while males show higher WMH volumes but lower pathophysiological effects in posterior WMHs.
