Abstract:Age‐related decrements in systemic arterial health may be indicative of alterations in cerebral perfusion and structure that are implicated in neurocognitive impairment.
Purpose
To determine if indicators of systemic arterial health are related to hemodynamic and structural changes in the brain in a population of healthy young and old adults.
Hypothesis
Poorer markers of arterial health will be associated with aging‐related hemodynamic and structural changes in the brain.
Methods
Young (n=13, f=7, m=6, 24±3 y,… Show more
