Article Abstract
We aimed to study trends in achieving blood pressure (BP) goals, antihypertensive prescribing, and whether clinician behavior changed in temporal relationship to the JNC-8 (October 1, 2014), SPRINT results (November 9, 2015), and the 2017 hypertension guideline (November 13, 2017). We used the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) Practice INNovation and CLinical Excellence (PINNACLE) registry and studied patients with hypertension aged >65 years (n = 3 678 774). We found a statistically significant, albeit small and minimally relevant, increase from 2013 to 2018 in achieving office-based SBP.

Spontaneous Aortic Sealing with Tranexamic Acid in Type A Dissection: A Novel Life-Saving Finding.
Eur J Case Rep Intern Med
August 2025
Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of Balamand, Beirut, Lebanon.
Unlabelled: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency, particularly Stanford type A, which typically necessitates urgent surgical intervention. Despite advances in surgical techniques and perioperative care, preoperative bleeding and coagulopathy remain significant challenges. Tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic agent, is widely used to minimize perioperative bleeding in cardiovascular surgeries; however, its role in the non-surgical, preoperative stabilization of aortic dissection has not been well established.

Department of Health, Nutrition, and Food Sciences, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL, United States.
Background: The objective of this study was to compare the effects of daily consumption of white potatoes compared with white rice on cardiometabolic health in individuals with type-2 diabetes (T2D).
Objective: To determine the effects of white potato consumption compared to white rice (a commonly consumed refined grain) on indices of glycemic control and cardiovascular health in individuals with overweight or obesity and T2D.
Methods: In this randomized crossover study, comparative control trial, 24 adults with T2D [45-80 y, body mass index (kg/m) 25-40] consumed baked white potatoes (100 g) or calorie-matched white rice (75 g) daily for 12 wk, separated by a 2-wk washout, with assessments of glycemic control, lipids, inflammation, blood pressure, endothelial function, and body composition at baseline (only 1 baseline visit included as a covariate in statistical analyses), 6 wk, and 12 wk.
Surgical outcomes from haematoma evacuation for intracerebral haemorrhage in the INTERACT3 study.
Lancet Reg Health West Pac
September 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: There is ongoing controversy as to whether surgical intervention to haematoma evacuation benefits patients with acute intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). This study aimed to evaluate the association of surgical intervention to evacuate the haematoma and 6-month functional outcome in participants of the third Intensive Care Bundle with Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Haemorrhage Trial (INTERACT3).
Methods: This was a secondary analysis of INTERACT3, which enrolled adults (age ≥18 years) spontaneous ICH patients within 6 h after onset.
Hypertension care: the knowledge and attitudes of the community pharmacists.

Department of Health Sciences, School of Life and Health Sciences, University of Nicosia, Nicosia, Cyprus.
Background: Hypertension is a major global risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality. In Greece, prevalence is about 40%, with many cases undiagnosed or poorly managed. While doctors remain central to diagnosis and treatment, community pharmacists, as accessible healthcare professionals, can support early detection and ongoing management.

Clin Kidney J
September 2025
Hypertension is a pervasive and progressive complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, affecting up to 90% of those in advanced stages or on dialysis. A particularly insidious aspect of this condition is nocturnal hypertension, characterized by high blood pressure (BP) during sleep and a blunted or absent nighttime BP dipping-phenomena associated with accelerated CKD progression and increased cardiovascular risk. Despite its strong prognostic significance, nocturnal hypertension remains underdiagnosed due to limited use of ambulatory BP monitoring.
