Hypertension control remains essential in primary prevention; reinforces established CVD and mortality risks in this longitudinal cohort.
Hazard Ratio: 1.79 (95% CI 1.46–2.19)
p-value: p=<0.0001
Findings from the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study highlight the high prevalence and incidence of hypertension in Iran and its substantial contribution to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Abdi et al. (2018) conducted a review in Hypertension and Cardiovascular Disease. Hypertension vs. Normal blood pressure was evaluated on Cardiovascular disease events (HR 1.79, 95% CI 1.46-2.19, p=<0.0001). Hypertension was associated with a significantly increased risk of cardiovascular disease (HR 1.79) and all-cause mortality in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study population.
