Baseline characteristics of the two study groups for mean arterial pressure (MAP), intraocular pressure (IOP), ocular perfusion pressure (OPP) and mini‐mental state examination (MMSE).
| AD/MCI | Healthy controls | p‐Value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Age (years) | 73.4 ± 8.9 | 70.7 ± 6.9 | 0.11 |
| Sex (f/m) | 19/28 | 23/20 | 0.21 |
| MAP (mmHg) | 104.9 ± 10.8 | 102.2 ± 9.8 | 0.24 |
| IOP (mmHg) | 15.1 ± 2.9 | 14.8 ± 2.5 | 0.62 |
| OPP (mmHg) | 54.9 ± 7.4 | 53.3 ± 6.4 | 0.31 |
| MMSE (points) | 25 ± 3 | 30 ± 0 | <0.001 |
AD = Alzheimer's disease, MCI = mild cognitive impairment.
All values are given as means ± SD.
