Basilar Artery Tortuosity Is Associated With White Matter Hyperintensities by TIMP-1

Background and PurposeTo test the hypothesis that the imbalance between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) may play a potential role in bridging vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia (VBD) with lacunar infarction (LI) and white matter hyperintensities (WMH)....
