WMHV: natural log from ratio of WMHV volume over total intracranial volume; EXT-WMHV: extensive WMHV; BI: MRI-defined brain infarcts; MCI: mild cognitive impairment; Model 1: logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, education, interval between exams; Model 2: Model 1 additionally adjusted for systolic blood pressure, current smoking, diabetes, history of cerebrovascular disease; Model 3: Model 1 additionally adjusted for interim stroke, after excluding participants with prevalent stroke at baseline; Model 4: Model 1 additionally adjusted for BI* or WMHV
