Journal ArticleDOI
A Calcium Antagonist vs a Non-Calcium Antagonist Hypertension Treatment Strategy for Patients With Coronary Artery Disease The International Verapamil-Trandolapril Study (INVEST): A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: The verapamil-trandolapril- based strategy was as clinically effective as the atenolol-hydrochlorothiazide-based strategy in hypertensive CAD patients, and was also recommended for patients with heart failure, diabetes, or renal impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum cholesterol levels and six-year mortality from stroke in 350,977 men screened for the multiple risk factor intervention trial
TL;DR: It is concluded that there is an inverse relation between the serum cholesterol level and the risk of death from hemorrhagic stroke in middle-aged American men, but that its public health impact is overwhelmed by the positive association of higher serum cholesterol levels with death from nonhemorrhagic stroke and total cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term weight loss and changes in blood pressure: results of the Trials of Hypertension Prevention, phase II
Victor J. Stevens,Eva Obarzanek,Nancy R. Cook,I-Min Lee,Lawrence J. Appel,Delia Smith West,N. Carole Milas,Mildred Mattfeldt-Beman,Lorna Belden,Charlotte Bragg,Marian Millstone,James M. Raczynski,Amy Brewer,Bali Singh,Jerome D. Cohen +14 more
TL;DR: This was a randomized, controlled trial examining the effects of weight loss and dietary sodium reduction, alone and in combination, in reducing blood pressure in overweight adults with high-normal diastolic blood pressure, which is at high risk for hypertension as they age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of small reductions in diastolic blood pressure for primary prevention.
TL;DR: A small reduction of 2 mm Hg in DBP in the mean of the population distribution, in addition to medical treatment, could have a great public health impact on the number of CHD and stroke events prevented.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Weight reduction is the most effective of the strategies tested for reducing blood pressure in normotensive persons, and sodium reduction is also effective.
