TL;DR: In this article, patients with refractory hypertension were defined as those who remained uncontrolled after ≥3 visits to a hypertension clinic within a minimum 6-month follow-up period.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Low baseline DBP was associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease events, but there was no evidence that the benefit of the intensive systolic blood pressure lowering differed by baselineDBP.

TL;DR: More intensive BP lowering resulted in more frequent episodes of AKI, most cases were mild and most participants had complete recovery of kidney function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Refractory Hypertension Evidence of Heightened Sympathetic Activity as a Cause of Antihypertensive Treatment Failure
Tanja Dudenbostel,Maria Czarina Acelajado,Roberto Pisoni,Peng Li,Suzanne Oparil,David A. Calhoun +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence of heightened sympathetic tone as indicated by 24-hour urinary normetanephrine levels, clinic and ambulatory heart rate, HR variability, arterial stiffness as indexed by pulse wave velocity, and systemic vascular resistance compared with patients with controlled resistant hypertension is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statin Therapy Is Not Associated with Improved Vascular Access Outcomes
TL;DR: Investigating whether vascular access outcomes are superior in patients receiving statin therapy than in those not on statins found that only sex predicted primary fistula failure and graft failure.
