Blood pressure variability (BPV) and heart rate variability (HRV) have been associated with Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) in rigorously controlled studies. However, the extent to which BPV and HRV may offer predictive information in real-world, routine clinical care is unclear. In...
