Observational study shows higher oxidation balance score reduces all-cause mortality in patients with hypertension, suggesting new risk assessment approaches.
Key Points
Higher mortality risks were reduced with elevated oxidation balance score, linking it to improved health outcomes.
After adjustments, a 13% lower risk of all-cause mortality was observed with higher oxidation balance scores in hypertensive patients.
Analysis utilized Kaplan–Meier curves and multivariable Cox regression to assess mortality risks across different groups.
Risk assessment indicates that oxidation balance score may serve as a valuable prognostic tool for hypertensive patients.
