Angiotensin II-stimulating versus inhibiting antihypertensives and risk of dementia: a nested case–control study using Australian general practice data
= 0.334) blood pressure during follow-up. The findings support the potential role of Ang-II stimulating AHMs (e.g., ARBs [thiazides, DHP CCBs]), relative to Ang-II inhibiting AHMs (e.g., ACEIs [BBs, non-DHP CCBs]), in reducing the risk of dementia in people with hypertension.
