Abstract
Arterial hypertension remains the most important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor for morbidity and mortality worldwide. This review summarizes and discusses major clinical trials published in 2023 and early 2024 in hypertension research. These trials include new epidemiological data, studies investigating the impact of blood pressure cuff size on blood pressure measurements, benefits of salt substitutes, and novel antihypertensive treatment options, including pharmacotherapy and bariatric surgery in patients with obesity. This summary reviews the major clinical trials published in 2023 and early 2024. AHT – arterial hypertension, BP – blood pressure, HR – hazard ratio, OBP – office blood pressure, PRA – plasma renin activity, SBP – systolic blood pressure.
