Cardiovascular disease risk factors, including age, hypertension, and diabetes, contribute to
aortic stiffness and subclinical cardiovascular and brain disease, increasing dementia risk …

Aortic stiffness is associated with an increased risk of cardio-and cerebrovascular disease
and mortality and may increase risk of dementia. The aim of the present study is to examine …

Background: Aortic stiffness is associated with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events
and cognitive decline. This mini-review focuses on relations of aortic stiffness with …

Background. Stiffness of the central arteries in aging may contribute to cerebral
microvascular disease independent of hypertension and other vascular risk factors. Few …

Background: Although arterial stiffness has recently been confirmed as a predictor of
cardiovascular disease, the association between arterial stiffness and cognitive decline is …

Objective: Carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (CFPWV), a marker of aortic stiffness, has
been associated with cognitive test results and markers of cerebral small vessel disease, but …

Background and Purpose—Aortic stiffening increases the transfers of high pressure and flow
pulsatility to small cerebral vessels potentially causing the accumulation of vascular brain …

Importance Aortic stiffness is associated with clinical hallmarks of Alzheimer disease and
related dementias and could be a modifiable target for disease prevention. Objective To …

Aortic stiffness is associated with cognitive decline. Here, we examined the association
between carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity and cognitive function and investigated …

Aortic stiffness is associated with cognitive decline and cerebrovascular disease late in life,
although these associations have not been examined in young adults. Understanding the …
