Cognitive performance is impaired in older adults with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). (A) We observed a significant decrease in the Paired Associate Learning First Attempt Memory Score (PALFAMS28) in the patients versus age- and sex-matched elderly controls (CONT), evidenced as a significantly higher percentage of recalling the correct box at first attempt (two-sample unpaired t-test, p = 0.03, n = 11 per group). (B) We also observed a significantly decreased performance in the rapid visual processing and attention (RVPA) test (0 to 1 from poor to good performance; two-sample unpaired t-test, p = 0.007, CONT: n = 11, CSVD: n = 9) in participants with CSVD compared with CONT. Dashed line mark the median and dotted lines bound the interquartile range. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
