What is the population-attributable risk for cardiovascular disease associated with hypertension in Black adults?
Hypertension is associated with a substantial proportion of cardiovascular disease cases in Black adults, highlighting the importance of blood pressure control in this population.
These findings suggest that a substantial proportion of CVD cases among black individuals are associated with hypertension. Interventions to maintain normal blood pressure throughout the life course may reduce the incidence of CVD in this population.
