To Study the Mortality Outcome of Controlled Blood Pressure Participants

Despite advances in antihypertensive therapy, some patients with well-controlled blood pressure still experience fatal outcomes. This paradox raises critical questions about the efficacy of blood pressure-targeted interventions and whether BP control alone ensures survival. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate all-cause mortality and cardiovascular death among hypertensive patients who achieved BP targets in RCTs or open-label trials. To determine whether achieving controlled blood pressure through intentional intervention (pharmacological or procedural) in RCTs or open-label studies reduces mortality (all-cause and cardiovascular) in hypertensive patients.

Textbook Outcomes in Urgent Appendectomy

A "textbook outcome" patient is defined as one whose surgical course is uneventful, with no complications, readmissions, or mortality. There is a lack of published research regarding textbook outcomes with an acute appendicitis that are treated with an appendectomy.
