We investigated cross-sectional associations between EPVS burden and MBI presence and symptom severity. Methods: Participants were dementia-free older adults in the Comprehensive Assessment of Neurodegeneration and Dementia (COMPASS-ND) study. EPVS were assessed using a validated visual rating scale applied to T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. MBI was measured using the informant-reported MBI Checklist (MBI-C) with a cut-point of ≥6 for MBI presence. Multivariable logistic and zeroinflated negative binomial regressions modelled EPVS associations with MBI presence and symptom severity, respectively, adjusting for age, education, and Montreal Cognitive Assessment score, with and EPVS*sex interaction term.  \nResults: Among 363 participants (52. 9% female), every 1-point rise in total EPVS score was associated with 1.29-fold greater odds of having MBI (95%CI:1.07–1.54, p = 0.007). When examining regional EPVS burden, those with higher centrum semiovale scores had greater odds of MBI (aOR= 1.48, 95%CI:1.09–12.02, p = 0.01), but this association was not significant for the basal ganglia (aOR= 1. 39, 95%CI:0.97– 1. 99, p = 0.07) or midbrain (aOR= 1.48, 95%CI:0.80–2. 76, p = 0. 21). Total and regional EPVS scores were not associated with MBI symptom severity. None of the associations were moderated by sex.  \nConclusion: Older adults with greater global and centrum semiovale EPVS burden are more likely to have MBI. These findings suggest that early microvascular pathology may contribute to later-life emergent and persistent behavioural symptoms, although longitudinal data are required, along with other indicators of vascular pathology.  \nThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.  \n© 2025 The Alzheimer’s Association.
