12 Effects of Intensive Blood-Pressure Control in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus The ACCORD Study Group N Engl J Med Volume 362(17): April 29, 2010

13 Study Overview In a randomized trial, 4733 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were at high risk for cardiovascular events received treatment aimed at a target systolic blood pressure of less than 120 mm Hg or less than 140 mm Hg The rates of the primary end point (nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or cardiovascular death) were evaluated after a mean follow-up of 4.7 years

19 Conclusion In patients with type 2 diabetes at high risk for cardiovascular events, targeting a systolic blood pressure of less than 120 mm Hg, as compared with less than 140 mm Hg, did not reduce the rate of a composite outcome of fatal and nonfatal major cardiovascular events

26 A Randomized Trial of Intensive versus Standard Blood-Pressure Control The SPRINT Research Group N Engl J Med Volume 373(22): November 26, 2015

27 Study Overview Patients at increased cardiovascular risk but without diabetes were assigned to intensive treatment of systolic BP (target, <120 mm Hg) or standard treatment (target, <140 mm Hg). After a median of 3.26 years, the rate of cardiovascular events was significantly lower with intensive treatment.

34 Conclusions Among patients at high risk for CV events but without diabetes, targeting a systolic BP of less than 120 mm Hg, as compared with less than 140 mm Hg, resulted in lower rates of fatal and nonfatal major cardiovascular events and death from any cause, although significantly higher rates of some adverse events were observed in the intensive-treatment group.
