Outcomes

Orthostatic hypotension

no changein humans1

1 study
  1. Intensive antihypertensive treatment has no effect on orthostatic hypotension in humans (P ≥ 0.655).

    “and the prevalence of OH and initial OH did not increase (P ≥ 0.655).”

    Human trialfrail hypertensive patientsmedian 7-weekn = 14

    Intensive antihypertensive treatment does not lower cerebral blood flow or cause orthostatic hypotension in frail older adults

Cerebral autoregulation

no changein humans1

1 study
  1. Intensive antihypertensive treatment has no effect on cerebral autoregulation in humans (P > 0.05).

    “CA remained normal following AHT (P > 0.05)”

Cerebral blood flow

no changein humans1

1 study
  1. Intensive antihypertensive treatment has no effect on cerebral blood flow in humans (95%CI: -2.7, 30.4).

    “Non-inferiority was confirmed for the relative change in MCAv (95%CI: -2.7, 30.4).”

Mean arterial pressure

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Intensive antihypertensive treatment decreases mean arterial pressure in humans (-15 mmHg).

    “Unattended mean arterial pressure decreased by 15 mmHg following AHT.”
