High Basal Ganglia Perivascular Space Burden Predicts Both Ischemic Stroke and Major Bleeding in Antithrombotic Users

A large prospective study reveals that a high burden of basal ganglia enlarged perivascular spaces (BGPVSs) significantly increases the risk of both ischemic stroke and major bleeding in patients on antithrombotic therapy, positioning BGPVS as a critical biomarker for personalized vascular risk assessment.

Differential Pathophysiological Roles of Centrum Semiovale Perivascular Spaces in Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy and Deep Perforator Arteriopathy: A Biomarker Synthesis

This review synthesizes evidence distinguishing perivascular space enlargement mechanisms in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) versus deep perforator arteriopathy (DPA), highlighting the diagnostic utility of CSF Aβ42/40 ratios in vascular amyloid pathology.
