简要总结
Hypertension, a highly prevalent disease .it correlated with increased risk of developing cardiac and cerebrovascular complications.These complications often associated with severe cognitive impairment.Hypertension is associated with changes in the vascular structure and function,leading to cognitive decline. The study shall provide insights into the cognitive function of elderly hypertensives.Potential gender specific pattern in cognitive decline will be identified. The study will provide prevalence of cognitive impairment in elderly hypertensive population and contribute to understanding of potentially informing prevalence of cognitive impairment.
