Researchers from the State University of Maringa in Brazil presented a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacc.org\/doi\/10.1016\/S0735-1097%2825%2901140-4\">systematic review<\/a> and meta-analysis at the 2025 <a href=\"https:\/\/accscientificsession.acc.org\/\">Scientific Sessions of the American College of Cardiology (ACC)<\/a>, so supporting the theory that patients with hypertension should be treated with stronger blood pressure medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite decades of research, there is still variation in treatment thresholds and goals for the management of raised blood pressure. While most physicians start treatment when the patient&#8217;s systolic blood pressure (SBP) is higher than 140 mmHg, others have adopted lower standards, particularly for individuals with comorbidities in their medical history. <a href=\"https:\/\/manhattancardiology.com\/es\/team\/mary-greene-md\/\">Cardiologist Mary Greene, MD<\/a>, who helped to write this article, tries to treat every patient in a way that fits their particular situation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.physiciansweekly.com\/balancing-act-intensive-versus-standard-bp-control-in-hypertension-management\/\">Read the
