Multiple studies have shown increased morbidity and mortality in patients with hypertension, with reduction in morbidity and mortality with appropriate treatment of the hypertension. With increasing age, however, the relative benefit of lowering blood pressure is attenuated. In 2002, Lewington et al published data from over 1 million adults from 61 studies on the associations between Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and mortality from stroke and coronary heart disease by age. The associations between both SBP and DBP and mortality from stroke, coronary heart disease and other vascular disease were graded and continuous with the lowest risk at SBP of 115 mmHg and DBP of 75 mmHg (lower BP levels were not reported) and the highest risk at SBP of 175 mmHg and DBP of 105 mmHg (higher levels were not reported). However, these associations were weaker at older age (see Figure 1 on page 2). 1
