                    [Title] => Controlling blood pressure could save lives of diabetics
                    [Summary] => People with diabetes have to watch not only their blood sugar level but their blood pressure as well.


A number of large-scale studies have shown that having a blood pressure less than 130/80 mm Hg (millimeter of mercury) greatly reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications such as heart attack and stroke.

The Hypertension Optimal Treatment (HOT) trial published in the Lancet demonstrated that tight blood pressure control using a combination of antihypertension drugs felodipine and ramipril resulted in a fewer incidence of stroke and heart attack.
