Age-stratified and blood-pressure-stratified effects of blood-pressure-lowering pharmacotherapy for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and death: an individual participant-level data meta-analysis

Kazem Rahimi, +101 more
- 18 Sep 2021 - 
TL;DR: Pharmacological blood pressure reduction is effective into old age, with no evidence that relative risk reductions for prevention of major cardiovascular events vary by systolic or diastolic blood pressure levels at randomisation, down to less than 120/70 mm Hg.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk and treatment effect heterogeneity: re-analysis of individual participant data from 32 large clinical trials.

TL;DR: There is typically substantial variation in outcome risk in clinical trials, commonly leading to clinically significant differences in absolute treatment effects most patients have outcome risks lower than the trial average reflected in the summary result.
Reference EntryDOI

Patches of different types for carotid patch angioplasty

TL;DR: There is some evidence that other synthetic (e.g. PTFE) patches may be superior to collagen impregnated Dacron grafts in terms of perioperative stroke rates and restenosis, but more trial data is required to establish whether any differences do exist.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variation in COL4A1/COL4A2 is associated with sporadic cerebral small vessel disease.

Kristiina Rannikmäe, +51 more
- 03 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate an association between common variation in the COL4A2 gene and symptomatic small vessel disease, particularly deep intracerebral hemorrhage, and merit replication studies, including in ethnic groups of non-European ancestry.
