cardiovascular disease, cognitive disability, high blood pressure, treatment, managementAbstract
Background: The main cause of death and disease on a global scale is high blood pressure, making it a critical issue for public health and a major public health concern.
Objective: This review will identify the available literature and conduct a study to determine the factors which are significantly connected with hypertension based cognitive impairment among the Pakistani population.
Methodology: Data was collected to evaluate the ramifications of this condition. The most significant element in hypertension-related cognitive impairment is the presence of risk factors, including socio-demographic factors, lifestyle hazards, and disease-based risks.
Results: Observational studies imply that therapy with antihypertensives is related to decreased instances of cognitive impairment.
Conclusion: There is a need for additional research to investigate these elements more in-depth and to compile global evidence on the subject.
