Summary

This study looks at how different blood pressure treatment goals affect artery stiffness in veterans over 60 with high blood pressure. Researchers will measure stiffness caused by blood pressure itself and by changes in the artery wall, and explore genetic factors. The goal is to create a more personalized approach to blood pressure management, improving heart health in older adults.
