Note: Values with normal distribution are presented as the mean ± stand deviation (SD); Values with non-normal distribution are presented as median(interquartile). χ2 test was applied in the comparisons of gender, hypertension, diabetes and smoking history; nonparametric test was applied in the other comparisons. *: p<0.05; a: p<0.05 differ from WMH I; b: p<0.05 differ from WMH II. Abbreviations: WMH, white matter hyperintensity; CMB, cerebral microbleeds.
