More than 55 million people globally have dementia — an umbrella term for a
number of diseases causing memory loss and cognitive decline. they know
certain conditions may impact whether a person develops dementia or not.
One of these is high blood pressure.
Previous research shows people with high blood pressure have a greater risk
of developing dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.
Now, researchers from the University of Edinburgh in the U.K. and
Jagiellonian University Medical College in Krakow, Poland, have discovered
the specific areas of the brain that may be damaged by high blood pressure
and are linked to the development of dementia.
