Microvascular density assessed with GLUT1 was lower in WMH (control: 50.1 microvasculature per mm2; hypertension: 47.8 microvasculature per mm2) compared to NAWM (control: 57.3 microvasculature per mm2; hypertension: 64.9 microvasculature per mm2) (p < 0.001;Table 2). The gene discussed is SLC2A1; the disease is Hypertension.
