    Objective To test the association between reduced kidney function (assessed by estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] and cystatin C [CysC]) and kidney damage (assessed by urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio [ACR]) and intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) by high-resolution vessel wall MRI (VWMRI) in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Neurocognitive Study (ARIC-NCS). Methods We…

    • Elevated #kidneydamage & reduced #kidney function were linked w/ intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) based on vessel wall MRI. In adjusted models, neither cystatin C nor albumin-to-creatinine ratio showed statistically significant links w/ #ICAD https://t.co/XZCLijpqnU https://t.co/eGQDAEw8P1
