2017 ACC/AHA/AAPA/ABC/ACPM/AGS/APhA/ASH/ASPC/NMA/PCNA Guideline for the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults: A Report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Task Force on Clinical Practice Guidelines

TLDR
Since 1980, the American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association have translated scientific evidence into clinical practice guidelines (guidelines) with recommendations to improve cardiovascular health.
Abstract
Since 1980, the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA) have translated scientific evidence into clinical practice guidelines (guidelines) with recommendations to improve cardiovascular health. In 2013, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Advisory

Effect of Blood Pressure Control on Long-Term Risk of End-Stage Renal Disease and Death Among Subgroups of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.

TL;DR: The ESRD and all‐cause mortality benefits of intensive BP lowering may not be uniform across all subgroups of patients with chronic kidney disease, and intensiveBP lowering was not associated with increased risk of ESRd or death among any subgroups that were examined.

Cardio-Oncology Drug Interactions: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association

- 12 Apr 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors provide clinicians with an overview of pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions in patients with cancer exposed to common cardiovascular and cancer medications, which may reduce the efficacy or safety of either cardiovascular or cancer therapies.

The relationship between mean telomere length and blood pressure: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys.

TL;DR: Smooth curve fitting found a non-linear relationship between MTL, the levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP/DBP) and the prevalence of hypertension.

Dietary Flavanols: A Review of Select Effects on Vascular Function, Blood Pressure, and Exercise Performance

TL;DR: It is suggested that flavanols can act as an ergogenic aid to help delay the onset of fatigue and further research is needed to clarify the amount, timing, and frequency of flavanol intake for blood pressure regulation and exercise performance.

Measuring inconsistency in meta-analyses

TL;DR: A new quantity is developed, I 2, which the authors believe gives a better measure of the consistency between trials in a meta-analysis, which is susceptible to the number of trials included in the meta- analysis.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis

TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.
