The blood pressure control part of the UKPDS, known as the Hypertension in Diabetes Study (HDS), demonstrated that tight blood pressure control over nine years (mean fall of 160/94 to 144/82 mmHg), with either atenolol or captopril, compared to a less tight blood pressure control group (mean fall of 161/94 to 154/87 mmHg) – a difference of 10/5 mmHg, sustained over the nine years – resulted in significant benefit. There was a reduction in overall risk of microvascular complications by 37% (p=0.0092), diabetes-related deaths by 32% (p=0.0046) but no significant effect was seen in all-cause mortality. After 6 years, 29% of the diabetic subjects required three or more drugs to achieve tight blood pressure control.","PeriodicalId":308856,"journal":{"name":"Primary Care Cardiovascular Journal (pccj)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126246556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
