BACKGROUND
Effects of blood pressure reduction in persons with grade 1 hypertension are unclear.
PURPOSE
To investigate whether pharmacologic blood pressure reduction prevents cardiovascular events and deaths in persons with grade 1 hypertension.
DATA SOURCES
Trials included in the BPLTTC (Blood Pressure Lowering Treatment Trialists' Collaboration) and trials identified from a previous review and electronic database searches.
STUDY SELECTION
Patients without cardiovascular disease with… CONTINUE READING
