Nature medicine·June 1, 2025·PMID 40258956

Why it matters

This large trial provides strong evidence that aggressive, protocol-driven BP lowering in a real-world, resource-limited setting can reduce dementia risk, addressing a major global health burden. It supports integrating non-physician providers in hypertension management to achieve meaningful cognitive outcomes.
