Radiological signs of white matter damage were scored using the age-related white matter changes (ARWMC) scale.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>All amyloid fragments were reduced in iNPH and SSVD (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05), although more in iNPH than in SSVD in comparison to HC. iNPH and SSVD showed comparable elevations of NFL, MBP, and GFAP (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). MMPs were similar in all three groups except for MMP-10, which was increased in iNPH and SSVD. Patients with iNPH had larger ventricles and fewer WMCs than patients with SSVD.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The results indicate that patients with iNPH and SSVD share common features of subcortical neuronal degeneration, demyelination, and astroglial response. The reduction in all APP-derived proteins characterizing iNPH patients is also present, indicating that SSVD encompasses similar pathophysiological phenomena as
