Association of Left Ventricular Function With Cerebral Small Vessel Disease in a Community-Based Population.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

The relationship of cardiac function with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) remains unknown. The study aimed to investigate the association between left ventricular (LV) function and CSVD in a community-based population.

Methods

Community-dwelling residents in China from the cross sectional survey of the PRECISE (PolyvasculaR Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and vaScular Events) cohort were included. LV ejection fraction (LVEF) and LV fractional shortening (LVFS) were measured for LV systolic function, and mitral E/A ratio (the ratio of the peak trans-mitral filling velocity during early diastole and late diastole) was evaluated for LV diastolic function by transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE). Total CSVD score and CSVD imaging makers including
