Article Synopsis
- * Both AE and DASH led to significant improvements in metabolic function, such as reduced insulin resistance and increased levels of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), which were linked to better executive functioning.
- * The study concluded that enhancing metabolic function through lifestyle changes can positively impact cognitive abilities in older adults.
Background: Hypertension in midlife has been associated with increased risk of stroke and neurocognitive decline. Few studies, however, have examined neurocognition among individuals with treatment-resistant hypertension or potential mechanisms by which treatment-resistant hypertension may impair neurocognition.
Methods: We examined the pattern of neurocognitive impairment and potential mechanisms in a sample of 96 overweight adults with treatment-resistant hypertension, aged 41-81 years.
