| MMSE Scorea | SVP-VDb | DVP-VDb | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Characteristic | Coefficient | P Value | Coefficient | P Value | Coefficient | P Value |
| SBP | 0.170 | 0.026 | 0.173 | 0.023 | 0.176 | 0.021 |
| DBP | 0.107 | 0.163 | 0.295 | <0.001 | 0.198 | 0.009 |
| Pulse pressure | 0.178 | 0.019 | 0.010 | 0.900 | 0.104 | 0.175 |
a
The P values were calculated by partial correlation after control for age, sex, eGFR, diabetes mellitus, and years of education. Bold values indicate P < 0.05.
b
The P values were calculated by partial correlation after control for age, sex, eGFR, and diabetes mellitus. Bold values indicate P < 0.05.
