Abstract:BackgroundLong-term blood pressure (BP) variability is related to several diseases, but its impact on cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) is uncertain. The study explored the relationship between BP variability, total cSVD burden, and its typical features.MethodThe study involved 1284 participants from the Kailuan cohort. From 2006 to 2022, systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP), and pulse pressure (PP) variability were calculated as low, middle, or high. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to identify white m… Show more
