The risk for mild cognitive impairment was increased in association with midlife hypertension and late-life hypotension only versus
normotension (odds ratio, 1.65).

Multinomial logistic regression considering blood pressure classification (Hypertension, prehypertension or
normotension) as dependent variable.
[28] found that
normotension at the time of admission and length of stay in the rehabilitation unit were associated with a response to inpatient rehabilitation.
Second, only questionnaires were used to determine the family history of hypertension, and offspring studies may require more information about the history of parental hypertension or
normotension (19).

Phenylephrine infusion maintained
normotension and a mean arterial pressure above 90 mmHg.
Tilt testing could produce significant false positive results because the support of lower extremity musculature critical for maintaining
normotension in the erect posture is eliminated during tilt table testing.
Hypertension was defined as 'systolic >140 mmHg, diastolic >90 mmHg',
normotension was defined as 'systolic=90-140 mmHg, diastolic=60-90 mmHg,' and hypotension was defined as 'systolic <90 mmHg, diastolic <60 mmHg'.
Inclusion criteria were nulliparity, no regular medication,
normotension, singleton pregnancy, and maternity age >18 years and <40 years.
*p <0.05 versus
normotension in the same sex group; # p <0.05 versus postmenopausal females.
