A structural heart-brain axis mediates the association between cardiovascular risk and cognitive function
Elevated vascular disease risk associates with poorer cognitive function, but the mechanism for this link is poorly understood. A leading theory, the structural-functional model argues that vascular risk may drive adverse cardiac remodelling, which, in turn, leads to chronic cerebral hypoperfusion a...
