TY - JOUR AU - Mogi, Masaki PY - 2019 DA - 2019/12/10 TI - Could Management of Blood Pressure Prevent Dementia in the elderly? JO - Clinical Hypertension SP - 27 VL - 25 IS - 1 AB - Hypertension is one of the most relevant risk factors in vascular aging, stroke and vascular dementia (VD). In the elderly, the prevalence of mixed dementia, which consists of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and VD, is increased. Moreover, disorders of blood vessels are reported to be involved in the onset and progression of AD. Thus, hypertension generally plays an important role in dementia overall.
