<unk> , also known as vascular<unk> , is a medical condition most commonly seen in older people with major depressive disorder.<unk>  refers to vascular<unk>  specifically due to lesions and restricted blood flow, known as<unk> , in certain parts of the brain. However, the disorder is typically described as vascular<unk>  in the literature. There is no formal and accepted definition of vascular<unk>  and the hypothesis requires further research to support the causal link between these vascular lesions and<unk> . Thus, it is difficult to determine if vascular<unk>  can be considered a distinct sub-type of major depressive disorder (MDD). However, with current criteria, some studies estimate that vascular<unk>  may account for over half of the cases of MDD in the elderly.
