摘要
A recent meta-analysis reports that blood-pressure-lowering treatments reduce the rate of cardiovascular events in patients with baseline systolic blood pressures ranging from >160 mmHg to <130 mmHg. Notwithstanding their diverse data sources, the researchers assert that a blood pressure target of <130 mmHg should be adopted when treating hypertension.
