Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals strong associations between hypertension, anti-hypertensive medication, and cognitive performance in elderly individuals.

Key Points

  • Significant associations were found between hypertension and cognitive performance in the elderly population.
  • The use of anti-hypertensive drugs, particularly calcium channel blockers, was linked to improved cognitive performance.
  • Family history of hypertension also correlated with cognitive performance, suggesting inherited factors may play a role.
  • No significant relationship was observed between diabetes mellitus and cognitive performance in this study population.
