Adoption of the Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events risk model in the 2025 American College of Cardiology\/American Heart Association guideline may substantially alter the number and characteristics of adults with untreated stage 1 hypertension who are recommended for treatment. We aimed to quantify treatment\u2010recommendation reclassification among adults with untreated stage 1 hypertension under the 2025 Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events\u2013based guideline compared with the 2017 pooled cohort equations\u2013based guideline.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">This cross\u2010sectional, nationally representative study used data from NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) 2015 to March 2020. The study population included adults aged 30 to 79\u2009years with stage 1 hypertension, focusing on untreated participants. The exposure was the guideline\u2010endorse cardiovascular risk assessment framework, pooled cohort equations, and Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events, respectively. The primary outcome was recommendation for antihypertensive pharmacotherapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">Among 1926 adults with stage 1 hypertension (weighted 32.57\u2009million), 59.59% (19.41\u2009million) were untreated.

Newly eligible adults were older (mean\u00b1SE, 60.48 [0.77] years) and had higher diabetes prevalence (37.74% [95% CI, 15.45%\u201360.04%]) than those below the treatment threshold.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec xml:lang=\"en\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p xml:lang=\"en\">The 2025 American College of Cardiology\/American Heart Association hypertension guideline recommendations were largely concordant with the prior guideline among adults with untreated stage 1 hypertension, while still newly identifying a subset of individuals with elevated cardiometabolic risk who may benefit from earlier intervention.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1161\/jaha.125.049525","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,10]],"date-time":"2026-10-10T12:06:38Z","timestamp":1791633998000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Guideline\u2010Directed Treatment Eligibility and Burden of Untreated Stage\u20101 Hypertension Under the 2025 American College of Cardiology\/American Heart Association Hypertension Guideline: Insights From NHANES 2015 to 2020"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-1624-0641","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qi","family":"Jian","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]},{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-5474-5900","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yishan","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]},{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7796-8701","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammed","family":"Ruzieh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine","place":["Chicago, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6011-681X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carl J.","family":"Pepine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0201-839X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Steven","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]},{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]},{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2608-616X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tianze","family":"Jiao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]},{"name":"University of Florida","place":["Gainesville, USA"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12916-025-03918-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","volume-title":"Hypertension","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2025","unstructured":"World Health Organization .
