Genetically predicted white matter microstructure mediates the relationship between risk factors and lacunar stroke by Qing Ye, Jie Zhang, Li Zhang, Benyan Luo, Xiangming Ye, Min Wu, Wenshi Wang, Yue Zou, Douglas Neville, Kaisi Ren, Shuchang Zhong, Haiying Xiang

“…Only hypertension showed a significant causal association with genetically predicted WM microstructure. Elevated mean diffusivity (MD), isotropic volume fraction (ISOVF) and the tertiary eigenvalue in the anterior limb of the internal capsule (ALIC) were independently linked to increased lacunar stroke risk, beyond the influence of WM hyperintensities, dilated perivascular spaces and brain volume. …”
