In this issue, Rahman and colleagues (3) report the outcomes of CVD in a subgroup of patients with chronic kidney disease from the Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT). The outcomes of kidney disease in the same subgroup were previously reported (4). These reports are important because 17% of ALLHAT participants had chronic kidney disease, making it the largest study of hypertension treatment in patients with this ...References1.
