Brain indices predict blood pressure control: aging brains and new predictions.
Hypertension is a predictor of dementia and is associated with subtle deficits in cognitive performance in strokeand dementia-free individuals.1 Younger hypertensive individuals may be as vulnerable to subtle progressive decline in cognitive ability as older individuals, although the pathophysiological mechanisms involved may be different.1,2 Hypertension-associated structural and functional ch...
متن کاملBrain imaging findings predict blood pressure response to pharmacological treatment.
Hypertension appears to alter brain morphology, as well as the cerebrovascular support for information processing. Because these effects might reflect progressive effects of essential hypertension on the brain, we asked whether structural and functional brain indices would predict the success of pharmacological treatment of hypertension among 45 previously unmedicated individuals. After initial...
متن کاملBlood pressure control and recurrence of hypertensive brain hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent studies have demonstrated that recurrence of hypertensive brain hemorrhage (HBH) is not uncommon. However, risk factors for the recurrence of HBH have not been evaluated systematically. METHODS We analyzed 74 patients with HBH who were admitted to our clinic and followed up as outpatients for a mean of 2.8 years. Blood pressure (BP) and other clinical features we...
متن کاملBlood pressure does no predict lacunar infarction.
We studied the relation between blood pressure and type of cerebral infarction (large or lacunar) in 134 patients with acute hemispheral infarcts that were detectable by computed tomography and that could not be attributed to causes other than atherothrombotic arterial disease. Lacunae were present in 26 patients, and systolic blood pressures were higher in this group than in the 108 patients w...
