The table above shows the patient demographics, frequency of vascular risk factors, and markers of HTN-cSVD (SCr and LVH) among the various subgroups of single LICH. Data are counts (n) and percentages (%) unless specified otherwise. Of note, p<0.05 when * is compared with ‡, † is compared with ‡, § is compared with ¶, ¶ is compared with ** and ** is compared with ††.
CAA, cerebral amyloid angiopathy; HTN-cSVD, hypertensive cerebral small vessel disease; LICH, lobar intracerebral haemorrhage; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy; NHIM, non-haemorrhagic imaging markers; SCr, serum creatinine; SCr, serum creatinine.
