Manel Pladevall, +11 more
- 21 Sep 2010 - 
TL;DR: A multifactorial intervention to improve adherence to antihypertensive medication was effective in improving both adherence and blood pressure control, but it did not appear to improve long-term cardiovascular events.

José Luis Llisterri, +10 more
- 01 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: BP control rates have improved in Spain from 2002 to 2010, and may be related, at least in part, with the higher use of antihypertensive treatment, particularly combined therapy.

Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure

Aram V. Chobanian, +10 more
- 01 Dec 2003 - 
TL;DR: In those older than age 50, systolic blood pressure of greater than 140 mm Hg is a more important cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor than diastolic BP, and hypertension will be controlled only if patients are motivated to stay on their treatment plan.

Age-specific relevance of usual blood pressure to vascular mortality: a meta-analysis of individual data for one million adults in 61 prospective studies.

Sarah Lewington, +4 more
- 14 Dec 2002 - 
TL;DR: Throughout middle and old age, usual blood pressure is strongly and directly related to vascular (and overall) mortality, without any evidence of a threshold down to at least 115/75 mm Hg.

Blood pressure, stroke, and coronary heart disease: Part 1, prolonged differences in blood pressure: prospective observational studies corrected for the regression dilution bias

Stephen MacMahon, +9 more
- 31 Mar 1990 - 
TL;DR: The DBP results suggest that for the large majority of individuals, whether conventionally "hypertensive" or "normotensive", a lower blood pressure should eventually confer a lower risk of vascular disease.

Kwok Leung Ong, +4 more
- 01 Jan 2007 -

Blood Pressure in Spain Distribution, Awareness, Control, and Benefits of a Reduction in Average Pressure

José R. Banegas, +4 more
- 01 Dec 1998 - 
TL;DR: These figures consistent with the fact that Spain has a higher cerebrovascular mortality than other countries such as the United States represent a great potential for improvement, particularly among those groups registering relatively worse data (younger men, rural residents, and unskilled professionals).
