Abstract:INTRODUCTIONWe investigated the effect vigorous physical activity (VPA) on the risk of incident mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and probable dementia among individuals with high‐risk hypertension.METHODSBaseline self‐reported frequency of VPA was categorized into low VPA (<1 session/week), and high VPA (≥1 session/week). We used multivariate Cox regression analysis to examine the association of VPA categories with incident MCI and probable dementia events.RESULTSParticipants in the high VPA category, compar… Show more
