Description

Carolina Janssen-Telders and colleagues study blood pressure in people with many heart risks in 2026. Data came from the global May Measurement Month drive. The drive screened adults in 105 nations. This study held 3,397,746 adults. Each gave three pressure readings.

In all, 91,222 people had two or more key conditions. That is 2.7 percent of the group. High pressure hit 56.1 percent of that group. More conditions meant more high pressure. It also meant more treatment. Yet control rates stayed flat across groups. Even with 85.6 percent treated, control lagged. The authors urge better control in high-risk groups.
