Elevated blood pressure variability (BPV) is associated with lower cognitive scores in older adults. That link is more profound in older, Black adults, according to a new study. Anisa Dhana, PhD, a ...

Frequent changes in blood pressure could affect cognitive health and contribute to brain changes associated with dementia risk, according to new research from Monash University.

Blood pressure variability (BPV) refers to fluctuations in blood pressure measurements over time, encompassing beat-to-beat, day-to-day and visit-to-visit changes. While mean blood pressure remains ...

Spontaneous fluctuations of blood pressure from visit to visit have usually been disregarded as a trivial factor that confounds the 'true' associations of an individual's long-term average blood ...

Even when blood pressure is well controlled, older adults whose blood pressure fluctuates widely from one heartbeat to the next may be at greater risk for brain shrinkage and nerve cell injury, ...

Fluctuations in blood pressure over an extended period, along with their interaction with mean blood pressure or intraocular pressure, are associated with a more rapid visual field progression in ...

A recent Scientific Reports study assessed whether clinically derived measures of heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure variability (BPV) are associated with the manifestation of Alzheimer’s ...

High blood pressure is a known cardiovascular risk factor for cognitive function. In the current study, researchers investigated the link between visit-to-visit blood pressure variability and ...
