This document summarizes the OSCAR study which compared high-dose olmesartan to standard-dose olmesartan plus a calcium channel blocker in 1164 elderly Japanese patients with uncontrolled hypertension. The study found that blood pressure was better controlled with the combination therapy, with a 2.4 mmHg lower systolic and 1.7 mmHg lower diastolic blood pressure. There was no significant difference in the primary outcome of cardiovascular events and death between the two groups. However, subgroup analysis found that patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease benefited more from the combination therapy, with significantly fewer cardiovascular events and deaths.
Updated Hypertension Management – ESH 2023.pdfDr. Nayan Ray
Hypertension is the most prevalent CV disorder in the world and according to the WHO, it affects 1.28 billion adults aged 30–79 years worldwide, two-thirds living in low-income and middle-income countries.
In 2019, the global age-standardized average prevalence of hypertension in adults aged 30–79 years was reported to be 34% in men and 32% in women.
At younger ages (<50 years), hypertension is more prevalent in men, whereas a steeper increase of SBP in women from their third decade (and more so following menopause) makes the prevalence of hypertension greater in women in older age categories (>65 years).
Rule of Halves
Half the people with high blood pressure are not known (“rule 1”),
Half of those known are not treated (“rule 2”) and
Half of those treated are not controlled (“rule 3”)'
Definition:
Hypertension is defined based on repeated office SBP values ≥ 140 mmHg and/or DBP ≥ 90 mmHg.

(abnormal LV filling pattern and elevated filling pressures)
It is more common among older patients and women, and results from abnormalities of active ventricular relaxation and passive ventricular compliance. HFpEF should be part of differential diagnosis in patients with typical symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, dyspnea, orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, edema and clinical signs of chronic heart failure.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

2. OSCAR (Olmesartan and Calcium Antagonists
Randomized Study)
H Ogawa (Kumamotom University, Japan)
American College of Cardiology 2011 Scientific Sessions
• Population and treatment:
1164 high-risk elderly Japanese patients with uncontrolled hypertension
(SBP >140 mm Hg, DBP >90 mm Hg) on standard-dose (20-mg/d)
monotherapy with the ARB olmesartan and ≥1 of the following risk factors:
Cerebrovascular disease, cardiac disease, vascular disease, or type 2
diabetes mellitus
Randomized to high-dose olmesartan (40 mg per day) or standard dose
calcium-channel blocker (CCB) (amlodipine or azelnidipine) with 20-mg/day
olmesartan
Adding other antihypertensive drugs (except ARBs, ACE inhibitors, and
CCBs) was allowed if BP remained uncontrolled
• Primary outcome:
A composite of CV events* and all-cause death
*Including cerebrovascular disease, CAD, HF, other atherosclerotic disease, diabetic complications, and
the deterioration of renal function
3. OSCAR: Results
• BP was adequately controlled in both groups but significantly more important
reductions were seen with combination therapy
SBP 2.4 mm Hg lower (p=0.0315)
DBP 1.7 mm Hg lower (p=0.0240)
• Primary end point: No significant difference seen between the two treatment arms
48 events in the combination group compared with 58 in the high-dose-ARB
group (HR1.21; p=0.1717)
• Subgroup analysis
Patients with preexisting CV disease appeared to benefit more from
combination therapy: significantly more CV events and death with high-dose-
ARB (HR=1.63; p=0.02610)
4. OSCAR: Commentary*
"The OSCAR study provides the first evidence showing that a standard dose of
ARB plus CCB combination is superior to high-dose ARB in reducing adverse
events in elderly hypertensive patients with cardiovascular disease."
- Dr Hisao Ogawa
"Extremely relevant with our aging population, where in the US alone 11 000 baby
boomers are turning 65 every day."
- Dr Sara J Sirna
"We definitely need a new study to examine whether ARB [dose] doubling or ARB
plus CCB is good for diabetic hypertensive patients."
- Dr Toyoaki Murohara
*All comments from OSCAR: Antihypertensive choice in elderly should be guided by underlying
disease (http://www.theheart.org/article/1207871.do)
