Key result
Low blood pressure is linked to increased cardiovascular events, except stroke, in coronary disease.
Why the study?
Does low blood pressure (<110-120/<60-70 mmHg) increase the risk of future cardiovascular events in patients with CAD?
Does low blood pressure (<110-120/<60-70 mmHg) increase the risk of future cardiovascular events in patients with CAD?
In patients with CAD, low blood pressure is associated with an increased risk of future cardiovascular events, supporting the existence of a J-curve.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Low BP signals elevated CV event risk in CAD; supports J-curve but leaves open causal confirmation in RCTs.
Bangalore et al. (2010) studied this question. Low blood pressure (<110-120/<60-70 mmHg) is associated with an increased risk of future cardiovascular events, except stroke, in patients with coronary artery disease.
