Blood pressure paradox: even controlled hypertension may not prevent death
NCT ID NCT07067632
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study reviews past clinical trials to see if people with high blood pressure who get it under control with medication actually live longer or have fewer heart-related deaths. Researchers will analyze data from 100 adults who achieved their blood pressure targets. The goal is to understand if controlling blood pressure alone is enough to reduce the risk of death.
