Popis: | This study investigated the association between blood pressure (diastolic [DBP] and systolic [SBP]) and cardiac events in a total of 6,602 patients with a healed myocardial infarction (MI) (5,320 men, 1,282 women; mean age, 58.9±10.4 years), including in-patients and out-patients, from January 1986 to January 1999. The primary endpoints (cardiac events) were recurrent MI (fatal and non-fatal), death from congestive heart failure, or sudden death. The total number of cardiac events was 195 (3.0%) and the incidences of the 3 cardiac events were compared among the 3 DBP groups (DBP low group |
