Improved long-term outcomes after renal transplantation associated with blood pressure control.

TL;DR: Lowering SBP, even after several years of posttransplantation hypertension, is associated with improved graft and patient survival in renal allograft recipients, paralleled by changes in the incidence of cardiovascular death among recipients younger than 50 but not in older recipients.

A Risk Score for Predicting Near-Term Incidence of Hypertension: The Framingham Heart Study

TL;DR: A simple risk score is developed that can be used in a physician's office to estimate the probability that an individual will develop hypertension over 1 to 4 years and to identify the persons who are at the highest risk for hypertension.
