Increased Diameters of the Internal Cerebral Veins and the Basal Veins of Rosenthal Are Associated with White Matter Hyperintensity Volume.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
background and purposeWhite matter hyperintensities on T2-weighted MR imaging are typical in older adults and have been linked to several poor health outcomes, including cognitive impairment and Alzheimer disease. The presence and severity of white matter hyperintensities have traditionally been attributed to occlusive arteriopathy, but recent evidence also implicates deep medullary venule collagenosis and associated vasogenic edema. Historically, postmortem analyses have been the sole way to analyze cerebral veins, but SWI can be now used to examine cortical veins in vivo. The aim of the current study was to determine whether there is an association between the diameters of the large draining cerebral veins/sinuses and white matter hyperintensity volume. MATERIALS AND
methodsT2-weighted FLAIR and SWI were performed in 682 older adults without dementia (mean age, 73.9 ± 5.9 years; 59.1% women). Total and regional white matter hyperintensity volume was derived. We measured the diameters of 5 regions of the cerebral venous draining system: internal cerebral veins, basal veins of Rosenthal, superior sagittal sinus, vein of Galen, and straight sinus terminus.
resultsIncreased diameter of the internal cerebral veins was associated with greater total white matter hyperintensity volume (β = 0.09,
conclusionsOur results suggest that the caliber of the internal cerebral veins and of the basal veins of Rosenthal relates to regional white matter disease.
