Does reducing SBP to levels below currently recommended targets reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in adults with hypertension?
Intensive control of systolic blood pressure below currently recommended targets significantly reduces cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in adults with hypertension.
This study suggests that reducing SBP to levels below currently recommended targets significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. These findings support more intensive control of SBP among adults with hypertension.
