In 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published the “Ten Great Public Health Achievements—United States, 2001–2010.”1 Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention made the list.

Unfortunately, heart disease and stroke continue to be responsible for more deaths than cancer and lung diseases combined.

Pharmacoepidemiologic study of association between apparent treatment resistant hypertension, cardiovascular disease and interaction effect by sex and age
CONCLUSION: aTRH was significantly associated with an increased risk of CVD and this association was modified by both sex and age. Further studies are warranted to test these mechanisms.PMID:37274374 | PMC:PMC10237003 | DOI:10.4330/wjc.v15.i5.262
