ABSTRACT Introduction: Dementia is a worldwide health concern, which leads to loss of autonomy. To date no curative treatment is available so focus on modifiable risk factors is of particular interest. Hypertension, particularly midlife high blood pressure, has been associated with an increased risk for cognitive decline and dementia including vascular dementia (VAD) and Alzheimer disease (AD). In this context, antihypertensive treatments might have a preventive effect. The objective of this…

The burden of dementia risk in aging PLHIV is higher than that in the general population, particularly in the most vulnerable clusters, so a comprehensive and preventative neurogeriatric healthcare response linked with HIV communities and dementia associations should be urgently put in place.

By counteracting early on the cardiovascular risk factor load and the pathological processes leading to increased aminoterminal natriuretic peptide (NT-proNP) level, the risk of dementia could be significantly reduced, and an increased NP level should be considered as a direct marker of neuronal damage.

A progressive increase in the plasma level of TC and LDLc from mild to severe hypertensive patients is revealed which could be a pointer to the fact that abnormalities in lipid metabolism might plays a significant role in the development and severity of hypertension.

Antihypertensive drugs, particularly calcium channel blockers and renin–angiotensin system blockers, may be beneficial in preventing cognitive decline and dementia, but further randomized controlled trials with longer periods of follow-up and cognition as the primary outcome are needed to confirm these findings.
