In this edition of the clinical and epidemiological round, we analyze the results of the SPRINT study, which suggest a more intensive control of the blood pressure for prevention of cardiovascular events. In addition, we present the results of the REVERT study, that used a modified Valsalva maneuver to treat stable supraventricular tachycardia. Kane et al. explore the improvement of the quality of life in patents with their first psychotic episode after a multidisciplinary approach versus the usual community care. Finally, Toledo et al. analyze the incidence of breast cancer in the PREDIMED study after the patients have followed a Mediterranean diet.

Keywords : Breast Neoplasms; Hypertension; Mediterranean Diet; Psychotic Disorders; Quality of Life; Supraventricular Tachycardia; Valsalva Maneuver.
