abstract = {BackgroundWhite matter hyperintensities of presumed
vascular origin (WMH) are frequent in cerebral magnetic
resonance imaging of older people. They are promoted by
vascular risk factors, especially hypertension, and are
associated with cognitive deficits at the group level. It
has been suggested that not only the severity, but also the
location, of lesions might critically influence cognitive
deficits and represent different pathologies.MethodsIn 560
participants (65.2 ± 7.5 years, $51.4\%$ males) of
the population-based 1000BRAINS study, we analyzed the
association of regional WMH using Fazekas scoring separately
for cerebral lobes, with hypertension and
cognition.ResultsWMH most often affected the frontal lobe
$(83.7\%$ score >0), followed by the parietal $(75.8\%),$
temporal $(32.7\%),$ and occipital lobe $(7.3\%).$ Higher
Fazekas scores in the frontal, parietal, and temporal lobe
were associated with higher blood pressure and
antihypertensive treatment in unadjusted ordinal regression
models and in models adjusted for age, sex, and vascular
risk factors (e.g., age- and sex-adjusted odds ratio = 1.14,
$95\%$ confidence interval = 1.03–1.25 for the association
of frontal lobe WMH Fazekas score with systolic blood
pressure [SBP] [per 10 mm Hg]; 1.13 [1.02–1.23] for the
association of parietal lobe score with SBP; 1.72
[1.19–2.48] for the association of temporal lobe score
with antihypertensive medications). In linear regressions,
higher frontal lobe scores were associated with lower
performance in executive function and non-verbal memory, and
higher parietal lobe scores were associated with lower
performance in executive function, verbal-, and non-verbal
memory.ConclusionsHypertension promotes WMH in the frontal,
parietal, and temporal lobe. WMH in the frontal and parietal
lobe are associated with reduced executive function and
memory.},
