Association Between Carotid Artery Stiffness and Dementia Diagnosis, Expressed as ORs With 95% CIs

Variable	CIND (n=98)	Dementia (n=99)
β‐Index	1.17 (0.80–1.80)	1.47 (1.00–2.27)
Elastic modulus	1.10 (0.78–1.60)	1.59 (1.06–2.56)*
Pulse‐wave velocity‐β	1.15 (0.82–1.66)	1.68 (1.13–2.61)*

Logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, education, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia.

CIND indicates cognitive impairment no dementia; and OR, odds ratio.

^*Levels of significance, P<0.05.
