| Abstract: |
Background/Objectives: Hypertension is linked to slower walking pace and cognitive decline, but the ability of slow gait to predict dementia in older adults with hypertension is unclear. This study examined whether slow baseline gait predicts future cognitive impairment in older adults with hypertension enrolled in the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) Memory and Cognition in Decreased Hypertension (MIND) study. Methods: SPRINTMIND randomized adults ≥50 years of age with hypertension to intensive (target systolic blood pressure |
