In participants with DS, microbleeds present with a posterior, lobar predominance, are associated with disease severity, but do not affect cognitive performance. These results suggest an interplay between AD pathology and vascular lesions, implicating microbleeds as a risk factor limiting the use of antiamyloid agents in this population.
