Deskripsi

Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a major cause of stroke and associated with structural changes of the brain. Here, Persyn et al. perform genome-wide association studies for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of CSVD, explore genetic correlations and prioritize candidate genes.
