The title on the smart phone did not include that the increased morbidity was restricted to patients with severe hypertension. From other comments, other missed this key fact. Perhaps your title should begin with: ,"In those with severe hypertension, coffee..." There seems to be a new study weekly on the positive health effects of coffee in the general population. Your style of title left out the most important aspect--the negative findings were restricted to an at-risk subgroup -- hypertensive patients. Happy New Year, Peter H Dohan, MD
