“…Between NHANES III (1984 to 1992) and NHANES 1999 to 2004, the proportion of patients with DM whose BP was treated increased from 76.5% to 87.8%, and the proportion whose BP was controlled nearly doubled (15.9% to 29.6%). 45 …”

“…13 Despite data supporting the benefits of lowering BP, most patients with diabetes do not reach evidence-based treatment goals. [13][14][15][16][17] An analysis of the NHANES 2003-2004 data showed that 84% of patients with hypertension and diabetes received antihypertensive treatment, 13 but only 35.3% had BP <130/80 mm Hg. Although this represents an improvement from the 1999-2000 NHANES data, 16 it is still not optimal.…”

“…Recent observations are not encouraging: in the US less than 50% of patients undergoing hypertensive treatment reach the target and the percentage is even lower in high risk patients [1]. A recent study carried out by Dr. Volpe in Italy on 50,000 subjects in several Italian regions, has proved how in treated patients, only 1/5 of the hypertensive ones arrives at pressure values b 140/90 mm Hg and, among these, only half the cases reached the target blood pressure [2].…”
