Methods: We studied 291,522 participants without a history of CVD and not taking any BP-lowering medications from the JMDC Claims Database. RA was defined as Keith-Wagener-Barker system grade ? 1. Each participant was classified into one of the six groups: (1) normal or elevated BP without RA, (2) normal or elevated BP with RA, (3) stage 1 hypertension without RA, (4) stage 1 hypertension with RA, (5) stage 2 hypertension without RA, and (6) stage 2 hypertension with RA.
Results: Median (interquartile range) age was 46 (40-53) years, and 141,397 (48.5%) of the participants were men. During a mean follow-up of 1,223±830 days, 527 myocardial infarction (MI), 5,718 angina pectoris, 2,890 stroke, and 5,375 heart failure (HF) events occurred. Multivariable Cox regression analyses revealed that the risk of CVD increased with BP category, and this association was pronounced by the presence of RA. Compared with normal or elevated BP without RA, the hazard ratios (HRs) for MI (HR 1.17, 95% CI 0.93-1.47)were higher in stage 1 hypertension without RA. The HRs for MI further increased in stage 1 hypertension with RA (1.86 [1.17-2.95]). This association was present in stroke and HF.
Conclusion: Incorporation of the assessment for RA may facilitate the CVD risk stratification of people classified based on the 2017 ACC/AHA BP guideline, particularly for those categorized in stage 1 hypertension.抄録：英語フィールド
