Group 1 - The article highlights the significant reduction in drug prices and the improvement in healthcare coverage for rural residents over the past fifteen years, particularly through the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme [1][3] - The reimbursement rate for inpatient care has increased from a low level at the start of the program to around 70% currently, indicating a substantial enhancement in financial support for medical expenses [3][8] - The article provides specific examples of individuals, such as Liu Guiying, who have experienced a decrease in monthly medication costs, with the price of a commonly used drug, Captopril, dropping from 28 yuan to 4 yuan per box, resulting in over a 50% reduction in her monthly drug expenses [2][4] Group 2 - Despite the improvements, there are still challenges faced by patients, such as the withdrawal of certain effective imported drugs from the reimbursement list, leading to increased out-of-pocket expenses for patients like Liu Guiying [4][6] - The disparity in healthcare benefits between different insurance schemes is evident, with urban employees enjoying better coverage compared to rural residents, as seen in the cases of Liu Guiying and Ai Fenglan [7][8] - The funding structure for urban employee insurance is more robust due to contributions from both employers and employees, while rural resident insurance relies heavily on government subsidies and individual payments, resulting in a smaller overall funding pool [8][9]

Core Viewpoint - The release of the 2025 ACC/AHA hypertension clinical guidelines indicates a new direction for hypertension prevention and treatment, highlighting the need for innovative solutions like renal denervation (RDN) to address the global challenge of uncontrolled hypertension [1]. Group 1: Differences Between US and China Guidelines - The US guidelines emphasize early intervention and precise stratification, setting the hypertension threshold at 130/80 mmHg to promote proactive management [2]. - The control targets in the US guidelines recommend a universal goal of <130/80 mmHg, with further specifications for high cardiovascular risk patients to lower systolic pressure to <130 mmHg, ideally <120 mmHg [3]. - In contrast, the Chinese guidelines set the hypertension threshold at 140/90 mmHg, aligning with local epidemiological characteristics and focusing on practical clinical management [4][5]. Group 2: RDN Clinical Application Under Guidelines - The 2025 US hypertension guidelines outline a comprehensive process for RDN application, emphasizing "precise selection, collaborative decision-making, and long-term management" [6]. - RDN is primarily indicated for patients with resistant hypertension, specifically those requiring three or more antihypertensive medications without achieving control [7]. - A multidisciplinary team (MDT) is essential for evaluating patients for RDN, ensuring thorough screening for secondary hypertension and contraindications [9]. Group 3: RDN as a New Treatment Option - RDN is recognized as a valuable adjunct treatment for resistant hypertension, with a recommendation level of 2b, B-R in the 2025 guidelines, indicating its use under specific conditions [11]. - The Iberis RDN system demonstrates significant efficacy, with a study showing a 13 mmHg reduction in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure and a 21 mmHg reduction in office systolic blood pressure at six months post-treatment [13]. - RDN offers a continuous blood pressure-lowering effect, providing a promising solution for patients with difficult-to-treat hypertension [13][14].
