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

The antihypertensive effect and mechanisms of bioactive peptides from Ruditapes philippinarum fermented with Bacillus natto in spontaneously hypertensive rats

TL;DR: The results showed that RBPs significantly reduced both systolic and diastolic blood pressure and alleviated the damage of kidney, thoracic aorta and heart of spontaneously hypertensive rats after 8 weeks of treatment, suggesting thatRBPs could be used as functional food ingredient for the improvement of hypertension.

Monitoring and management of hypertension with obesity in adolescents.

TL;DR: Regular BP monitoring is necessary for ongoing management of obesity associated hypertension in adolescents and pharmacologic therapy is indicated to achieve a goal BP of <130/80 mm Hg or <90th percentile, whichever is lower.

Increased Incidence of Resistant Hypertension in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Retrospective Cohort Study

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.
