Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin II receptor blockers and pneumonia risk among stroke patients.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To assess the clinical relevance of regression to the mean for clinical trials and clinical practice. METHODS:MEDLINE was searched until February 2018 for randomized trials of BP lowering with over 1000 patient-years follow-up per group. We estimated baseline mean BP, follow-up mean (usual) BP amongst patien...
