Use of Long-term Cumulative Blood Pressure in Cardiovascular Risk Prediction Models

Abstract: Using long-term measures of cumulative blood pressure, instead of single measurements, can modestly improve the ability of cardiovascular disease risk prediction models to correctly classify individuals in terms of their risk for cardiovascular disease.

“…The mechanism of FSK in ameliorating atherosclerosis might be complex, with potential modulation on the multiple risk factors and cell components of heterogeneity. [21][22][23] Here, FSK treatment did not alter blood pressure, bodyweight or plasma lipids ( Figure S4 and Table S1). However, FSK enhanced endothelial repairing capacity in athero-prone region (Figure 6), consistent with its activity in pro-endothelial proliferation (Figure 3).…”

“…Participants with antihypertensive medication prescribed before the index date were excluded as the duration of hypertension since initial diagnosis or dose and types of an-tihypertensive medications prescribed may have effects on both blood pressure levels and CVD risk. 31 Nevertheless, in an attempt to determine whether pharmacological management may be associated with a lower risk of CVD particularly among patients with stage 1 hypertension, a stratified analysis according to subgroups of antihypertensive medication prescription within the first 5 years of follow-up was conducted. Although patients with stage 1 hypertension not taking antihypertensive medications had higher risk of CVD, those who were prescribed antihypertensives did not have increased CVD risk compared with their respective normal blood pressure groups.…”

“…Thus, they offer direct information not used by extant models. While seemingly trivial, integration of longitudinal data into such prediction models has proven to be challenging [16]. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first to leverage longitudinal blood pressure measurements to significantly improve CV risk prediction.…”

“…While our analysis is limited due to the retrospective nature of the data, our careful validations illustrate the usefulness of integrating regularly collected longitudinal data into prediction models. Recently, Pool et al[16] examined whether incorporating cumulative SBP measures that summarize SBP levels collected over time improve atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease prediction. Their results show only modest improvement by incorporating cumulative SBP in the prediction as compared to a single SBP measure.…”
