We also review a new RCT for BP targets in patients with hypertension and diabetes, a new aldosterone synthase inhibitor for hypertension, and reduced dose apixaban for cancer-associated thrombosis.
Hydrocortisone for Severe CAP (REMAP-CAP)
Predicting Benefit of Corticosteroids in Pneumonia
Intensive BP Control in Patients with Diabetes (BPROAD)
Lorundrostat for Uncontrolled Hypertension (ADVANCE-HTN)
