Is arterial stiffness associated with cognitive impairment in elderly subjects with complaints of memory loss?
Arterial stiffness is associated with cognitive impairment in elderly patients with memory loss, suggesting a vascular contribution to dementia.
Our results showed a relationship between arterial stiffness and cognitive impairment, suggesting that functional changes of the arterial system could be involved in the onset of dementia (VaD or AD types).
Hanon et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
