Correlation Analysis and Predictive Model Construction of Metabolic Syndrome, Complete Blood Count-Derived Inflammatory Markers, and Overall Burden of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease

The high burden of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) on neuroimaging is a significant risk factor for stroke, cognitive dysfunction, and emotional disorders. Currently, there is a lack of studies investigating the correlation between metabolic syndrome (MetS), complete blood count-derived inflammatory markers, and total CSVD burden. This study aims to evaluate the total CSVD imaging load using machine learning (ML) algorithms and to explore further the relationship between MetS, complete blood count-derived inflammatory markers, and CSVD load.
