Is the Blood Pressure Paradox Observed in All Heart Failure Patients?
Figure 1
Kaplan-Meier survival curves according to admission SBP using 115 mmHg as cut-off, in non-diabetic and diabetic patients. Non-diabetic patients with an admission SBP < 115 mmHg had higher 6-month risk of HF death than those with admission SBP ≥ 115 mmHg (a). In diabetic patients, no difference in HF death risk existed between those admitted with SBP below 115 mmHg or above.
