After 10 years of follow-up, we observed 418 deaths of which 254 from cardiovascular cause. ![]() The cohort was divided into 5 groups: 0 TOD (N = 978), 1 TOD (N = 308), 2 TODs (N = 94), 3 TODs (N = 30), and previous CVD (N = 438). ![]() At baseline 1,848 out of a cohort of 1,963 hypertensive patients had a previous cardiovascular disease (CVD) or assessments of 3 TODs: Modification in Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) 300mg/day, Sokolow index >3.5 mV, and advanced hypertensive retinopathy (grades 3 and 4 of Keith-Wagener-Barker classification). We estimated the prognostic value of considering 3 TODs in estimating the 10-year survival in hypertensive subjects. The prognostic value of screening multiple target organ damages (TODs) in hypertensive subjects has not been extensively studied.
