Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Heart failure, a pressing issue in modern cardiology, occurs with preserved ejection fraction in more than 50% of cases. Screening and risk factor modification in HFpEF can be an effective strategy for improving long-term patient outcomes. One of the important components of such a strategy is hypertension control. Modern studies have shown that pharmaceutical control aimed not only at lowering baseline BP but also at minimizing its long-term impact leads to additional benefits for the patient, reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, as well as the frequency of hospital readmissions. Our review reveals a method for calculating an indicator demonstrating the long-term impact of BP in heart failure and its clinical significance
