The Impact of Common Epidemiological Factors on Gray and White Matter Volumes in Magnetic Resonance Imaging–Is Prevention of Brain Degeneration Possible?

Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of multiple risk factors (age, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, BMI, smoking, alcohol) on the gray and white matter volumes as well as on the burden of white matter hyperintensities (WMH).Material and Methods: The study group consi...
