Does intensive blood pressure control reduce cardiovascular, renal, and mortality outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes?

Intensive blood pressure control significantly reduces stroke and macro-albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes, suggesting current targets of 130/80 mmHg could be lowered further.
The use of intensive compared with standard blood pressure targets resulted in a significant reduction in blood pressure, stroke, and macro-albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes. The post-treatment blood pressure level in the intensive group was 125/73 mmHg, suggesting the current recommendations of 130/80 mmHg blood pressure or lower if tolerated, could be reduced further.
