Objectives: Visit-to-visit blood pressure (BP) variability is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline. Our aim was to assess the association between visit-to-visit BP variability and progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMH). Design: Post-hoc analysis in the magnetic resonance imaging substudy of the randomized controlled trial prevention of dementia by intensive vascular care. Setting and participants: Community-dwelling people age 70-78 years with hypertension. Methods: Participants had 3 to 5 twice yearly BP measurements and 2 magnetic resonance imaging scans at 3 and 6 years follow-up. We used linear regression adjusted for age, sex, WMH at scan 1, (change in) total brain volume, and cardiovascular risk factors. Results: Among the 122 participants, there was a modest association between visit-to-visit systolic BP variability and WMH progression [beta = 0.03 mL/y per point increase in variability, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.00-0.05, P = .058]. Additional adjustment for slope in systolic BP reduced the associated P value to .043. Visit-to-visit diastolic BP variability was not associated with WMH progression (beta = 0.01 mL/y, 95% CI -0.02 to 0.03, P = .68). Visit-to-visit pulse pressure variability was associated with WMH progression (beta 0.03 mL/y, 95% CI 0.01-0.05, P < .01). Conclusions: Higher visit-to-visit systolic BP and pulse pressure variability is associated with more progression of WMH among people age 70-78 years with hypertension.
