Relationship between WM capillary width and WM pathology Plot shows correlation between mean capillary widths assessed by COL4 immunostaining in all the dementias and ageing controls versus WML scores. Pearson’s analysis revealed that mean capillary width in the WM in dementia was positively correlated with WM damage (r = 0.71, P = 0.032). Although there were some age-related changes in WM in the controls, it was clear that all dementias were a disparate group as a whole exhibiting high WML scores and wider capillaries
