The two most common causes of @entity1294 ( @entity1294 ) are @entity303 evolving in connection with multiple small or large @entity64 and @entity303 related to @entity63 white-matter lesions (WMLs) of the brain. The knowledge about risk factors for these disorders is still scarce. Besides sharing risk factors with @entity64 , @entity303 with multiple small or large @entity4798 is also associated with non-vascular risk factors such as high @entity167 consumption, @entity1642 in early life, lower formal education, blue collar occupation, and occupational exposures. Risk factors for @entity303 in @entity64 victims include @entity64 -related and non- @entity64 related risk factors. Non- @entity64 -related factors are similar to those found in @entity195 . The main risk factors for @entity63 WMLs are @entity101 or increased blood pressure, but WMLs have also been associated with a number of other vascular risk factors. In recent years, @entity195 ( @entity195 ) has also been reported to be associated with vascular risk factors, including @entity101 , @entity301 , @entity955 , @entity6 , and WMLs. Although these associations may reflect an overdiagnosis of @entity195 in cases with @entity66 , or that @entity66 increases the possibility that individuals with @entity195 will express a @entity303 , there are also alternative explanations. @entity195 and @entity66 may for instance share similar risk factors or etiologic pathways. The pathogenetic implications for the association between @entity195 and vascular factors need to be further explored. There is also a need for more studies on risk factors for @entity1294 and risk factors for @entity303 in @entity64 samples, as well as studies on non-vascular risk factors for @entity63 WMLs.
