نبذة مختصرة : Abstract Purpose The goal of blood pressure (BP) control will be lower when hypertensive patients have comorbidities that can affect the risk of cardiovascular diseases. But, the goal of BP control for hypertensive patients coexistent with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is not discussed, which is a special population at high risk of cardiovascular diseases. Patients and methods Using data from a retrospective study(Urumqi Research on Sleep Apnea and Hypertension (UROSAH) study, we enrolled 3267 participants who were diagnosed with hypertension and performed polysomnography during 2011–2013 to explore the association between BP control and long-term major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE). Outcomes of interest was the levels of BP control, MACCE, cardiac event and cerebrovascular event. Then we calculated the cumulative incidence of MACCE and performed Cox proportional hazards with stepwise models. Results 379 of 3267 patients experienced MACCE during a median follow-up of 7.0 years. After full risk adjustment, BP control of 120-139/80-89mmHg was associated with the lowest risk of cerebrovascular event (HR: 0.53, 95%CI:0.35–0.82) rather than MACCE and cardiac event in the total cohort. The association did not change much in patients with OSA. When the SBP and DBP were discussed separately, the SBP control of 120-139mmHg or
