Clinical usefulness and cost effectiveness of home blood pressure telemonitoring: meta-analysis of randomized controlled studies.

TL;DR: HBPT may represent a useful tool to improve hypertension control and associated healthcare outcomes, although it is still more costly compared with usual care.

Prevalence of primary and secondary hypertension: studies in a random population sample.

TL;DR: The low prevalence of secondary hypertension, especially surgically curable forms of hypertension, makes routine screening for these cases unnecessary, at least when patients with hypertension have been found at screening.

Prognostic importance of ambulatory blood pressure recordings in patients with chronic kidney disease

TL;DR: In patients with CKD, BPs obtained by ambulatory monitoring are a stronger predictor of ESRD or death compared to B Ps obtained in the clinic, however, adjustment for other risk factors for CKD progression removes the independent prognostic value of ambulatory BP.

Albuminuria Assessed From First-Morning-Void Urine Samples Versus 24-Hour Urine Collections as a Predictor of Cardiovascular Morbidity and Mortality

TL;DR: To predict cardiovascular morbidity and all-cause mortality, measuring ACR in a first-morning-void urine sample is a good alternative to measuring 24-hour UAE.

Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors After Early-Onset Preeclampsia, Late-Onset Preeclampsia, and Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension

TL;DR: Differences in the prevalence of common modifiable CVD risk factors postpartum are evaluated and suggest that prevention strategies should be stratified according to severity and gestational age of onset for the hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
