Background: Resistant hypertension is characterized by elevated blood pressure (BP) despite using 3 antihypertensive agents. Ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) detects the presence of white-coat resistant hypertension (24-hour BP <130/80 mm Hg). The aim of the study was to evaluate risks of death in resistant hypertension compared with controlled hypertension, as well as in ABPM-confirmed (24-hour BP ≥130 or 80 mm Hg), versus white-coat resistant hypertension.

It was explored whether different levels of ambulatory and office BP and different hypertension phenotypes associate with differences of risk in diabetes and no diabetes.
Methods: This analysis assessed outcome data from the Spanish ABPM Registry in 59 124 patients with complete available data.
Background: Quantification of total cardiovascular risk is essential for individualizing hypertension treatment. This study aimed to develop and validate a novel, machine-learning-derived model to predict cardiovascular mortality risk using office blood pressure (OBP) and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP).
Methods: The performance of the novel risk score was compared with existing risk scores, and the possibility of predicting ABP phenotypes utilizing clinical variables was assessed.
Background: The prognostic relevance of short-term blood pressure (BP) variability in hypertension is not clearly established. We aimed to evaluate the association of short-term BP variability, with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a large cohort of patients with hypertension.
Methods: We selected 59 124 patients from the Spanish Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Registry from 2004 to 2014 (median follow-up: 9.
