Fantastic new work by @neurobatool just out in @braincomms. Check it out!
Batool Rizvi@neurobatool17 May 2024
Our new publication in @BrainComms is out! It highlights a pathway linking higher pulse pressure to dementia in adults with Down syndrome. Super thankful to @AdamMBrickman and @mike_yassa for their mentorship! A thread 🧵.. link: academic.oup.com/braincomms/…

New preprint is out! Although adults with Down syndrome are less likely to have hypertension, what else do we know about this topic? Read more in our preprint: "Pathways linking pulse pressure to dementia in adults with Down snydrome" medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Pathways linking pulse pressure to dementia in adults with Down syndrome

Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are less likely to have hypertension than neurotypical adults. However, whether blood pressure measures are associated with brain health and clinical outcomes in...
