Digital health interventions make a positive impact in managing hypertension among seniors, according to a study released last week.
MPV ≥10.2 fL was independently associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality.
Increases also were seen in the proportion of participants with a mean monthly BP classified as uncontrolled or severely uncontrolled hypertension.
The mean home systolic blood pressure was lower with the triple-pill protocol versus the standard-care protocol at month 6.
Higher odds were seen for long-term exposure to high decibels.
The all-cause dementia risk was greater for those with treated and untreated hypertension compared with healthy controls.
Additional benefits include improved kidney and heart health in patients with hypertension.
However, no significant differences were seen in changes in glycated hemoglobin between long-term low-carb and control diets.
Excellent tolerability was seen, with no changes in blood pressure, minimal reports of sedation and minimal dissociation.
An even higher risk for young-onset dementia was seen for preeclampsia before 34 weeks of gestation or superimposed on chronic hypertension.
