Should pulse pressure become part of the Framingham risk score? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Hypertension, 2004
An increased pulse pressure suggests aortic stiffening. New evidence also suggests that pulse pressure is a more sensitive measure of risk than other indexes of blood pressure in middle-aged and older persons. The objective of the study was to relate pulse pressure to the risk of cardiovascular events in the general population, and to assess whether ...

Protective Effects of Socioeconomic Status and Lifestyle on Amyloid‐ and White Matter Hyperintensity‐Related Longitudinal Brain Atrophy and Cognitive Decline

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Socioeconomic status (SES) and lifestyle activities (LA) are strongly related, and both are associated with dementia risk. We investigated the influence of SES and LA on brain atrophy and cognitive decline considering amyloid‐beta (Aβ) positron emission tomography and white matter hyperintensity (WMH) load.
