This book is a valuable tool to
assist both cardiovascular physicians and scientists learning the
intricacies of hypertension research and its milestone studies. All
major hypertension trials have been reviewed in this book in
chronological order with extensive discussion of the study population,
study design, and outcomes and with a special focus on what knowledge
they offered, their strengths and weaknesses, statistical errors, impact
on international guidelines and unmet needs. Importantly, the book also
offers physicians and young scientists with basic knowledge regarding
medical biostatistics. It is of critical importance for a scientist
involved in the field to understand deeply the process of analyzing
medical data. Moreover, the accurate interpretation of the results is
central for applying evidence-based medicine in everyday clinical
practice.
Management of Hypertension: Current Practice and the Application of Landmark Trials is
a critical tool to assist in the education of physicians and
researchers in the field, providing a separate section on pioneer
researchers in hypertension and urging readers to become bright
exemplars for scientists wishing to pursue a career in academic medicine
and hypertension research.
