TL;DR: Assessment of spontaneous changes of BP over a long period of time can contribute to the evaluation of cardiovascular risk, especially if these changes reflect the evolution of arterial and arteriolar alterations.

TL;DR: In this article, a randomized controlled trial of Aliskiren in the Prevention of Major Cardiovascular Events in Elderly people was presented. But the authors did not discuss the effect of the combination therapy in patients living with systolic hypertension.

TL;DR: In a large population of men with a relatively low cardiovascular risk, a wide pulse pressure is a significant independent predictor of all-cause, cardiovascular, and, especially, coronary mortality in all age and mean pressure groups.

Systolic versus diastolic blood pressure and risk of coronary heart disease. The Framingham study.
TL;DR: The current practice of assessing the importance of blood pressure at all ages largely on the basis of diastolic pressure and the commonly held view concerning the innocuous nature of an elevated level of systolic pressure in the elderly requires reevaluation.

Benefits and potential harm of lowering high blood pressure
TL;DR: There was a J-shaped relation, confined to those with evidence of ischaemic heart disease, between frequency of death from myocardial infarction and treatedDBP (phase V); the frequency was lowest at treated DBP of 85-90 mm Hg and rose with treated DBPs on either side of this range.
