In this episode, Elyn caps off the papers on Cerebrovascular Changes in AD from September 2020. There’s mounting evidence for a significant overlap between vascular disease and brain health, and Elyn dives into the newest papers exploring this relationship. Tune in to hear about how cerebral small vessel disease might be the mediator between arteriosclerosis and cognitive impairment, how APOE is related to microbleeds, and how ACE1 inhibitors might be relevant in AD!
