Thyroid status and brain circulation: The Rotterdam Study
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that thyroid dysfunction could lead to brain diseases such as stroke or dementia through a suboptimal brain circulation that is potentially modifiable.PMID:34634119 | DOI:10.1210/clinem/dgab744

Assessment of the outer retina and choroid in white matter lesions participants using swept ‐source optical coherence tomography
ConclusionsAssessing retinal thickness and choroidal changes with the SS-OCTA as a proxy for WML could prove to be a potentially valuable tool for early detection of cognitive decline and other neurodegenerative diseases.

The Application of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease, Ischemic Stroke, and Dementia: A Systematic Review
Conclusions: Changes in retinal microvasculature identified using OCTA are associated with monogenic SVD and different stages of AD, but data are limited and partly confounded by methodological differences. Larger studies with risk factors adjustment and more consistent OCTA methods are needed to fully exploit this technology.PROSPERO registration number: CRD42020166929.
