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

Isolated Nocturnal Hypertension: What Do We Know and What Can We Do?

Marijana Tadic, +3 more
TL;DR: Nocturnal hypertension has been recognized as a significant risk factor for cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases and studies revealed its influence on target organ damage, but it seems that the timing of drug administration has a crucial role in the reduction of nighttime BP and conversion of circadian patterns from nonphysiologic to physiologic.

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

Matthias Egger, +3 more
- 13 Sep 1997 - 
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.

Julian P T Higgins, +1 more
- 15 Jun 2002 - 
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.
