| Washington Post: A report issued Tuesday by the CDC finds that nearly a third of U.S. adults (nearly 67 million people) have hypertension — and that more than half of those people do not have their condition under control. Those estimates are based on data for nearly 23,000 participants in the federal National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2003 to 2010. |
