White matter hyperintensities are more highly associated with preclinical Alzheimer's disease than imaging and cognitive markers of neurodegeneration

Overview
Abstract Introduction Cognitive tests and nonamyloid imaging biomarkers do not consistently identify preclinical AD. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volume, a cerebrovascular disease marker, is more associated with preclinical AD than conventional AD biomarkers and cognitive tests. Methods Elderly controls enrolled in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI, n = 158) underwent florbetapir-PET scans, psychometric testing, neuroimaging with MRI and PET, and APOE genetic testing. Elderly controls the Parkinson's progression markers initiative (PPMI, n = 58) had WMH volume, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aβ1–42 , and APOE status measured. Results In the ADNI cohort, only WMH volume and APOE ε4 status were associated with cerebral Aβ (standardized β = 0.44 and 1.25, P = .03 and .002). The association between WMH volume and APOE ε4 status with cerebral Aβ (standardized β = 1.12 and 0.26, P = .048 and .045) was confirmed in the PPMI cohort. Discussion WMH volume is more highly associated with preclinical AD than other AD biomarkers.
