A clinical analysis on increasing blood pressure on subtle brain injury in asymptomatic young adults
Objective To evaluate the effects of on increasing blood pressure on white-matter integrity in asymptomatic young adults with diffusion tensor imaging technology. Methods Sixty asymptomatic young adults were divided to normal group, prehypertension group and hypertension group according to their blood pressure levels. The ADC values and FA values were measured. We analysed diffusiom tensor imaging measures of fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity. And the statistical analysis data was to establish. Results DTI could display the cerebral white matter fibers well. There were statistical differences among FA values and ADC values of different groups. FA values can be used to analyze the anisotropy of cerebral white matter fibers of different adults groups quantitatively. Conclusion Increased blood pressure is associated with clinically concomitant subtle brain injuries,even for asymptomatic young adults. Our results emphasise the need for early and optimun control of blood pressure.
