The Interaction of Hypertension and Obstructive Sleep Apnea Risk on Cognitive Function in Healthy Older Adults
The association between hypertension and memory and attention and between OSA risk and memory in older adults was supported. The interaction effect was found in executive function but unexpected. Future studies are needed to recruit older adults with hypertension and diagnosed OSA to explore these interaction effects.
