Synopsis

In patients with cognitive impairment spectrum, 3T MRI revealed that choroid plexus volume and permeability was associated with cognitive impairment severity. l In patients with cognitive impairment, choroid plexus (CP) volume followed this order: Alzheimer dementia > late mild cognitive impairment (MCI) > early MCI or subjective cognitive impairment (p<.001) l Large CP volume was associated with lower Ktrans (r=-0.403, p=.006) and Vp (r=-0.543, p=.003) l Increased CP volume was negatively associated with memory function (B=-0.6662, SE=0.2089, p=.002), frontal executive function (B=-0.8973, SE=0.3145, p=.005), and mini-mental status examination score (B=-0.8158, SE=0.3153, p=.01) after adjusting for covariates.
