Jimenez-Balado J, et al. - This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of hippocampal enlarged perivascular spaces (H-EPVS) in a sample of patients with hypertension and their relationship with vascular risk factors, cognitive function and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). In patients with hypertension, H-EPVS was a frequent finding, which correlated with ageing and poor hypertension treatment compliance. H-EPVS were also associated with worse verbal reasoning function.
