-**Objective:​** ​//​Characterisation ​of non-cancerous thyroid disorder population and sources of variation within treatment pathways//+**Objective:​** ​The goal of this protocols is conducting comparative effectiveness research to establish evidences for optimal anti-hypertensive combination strategies among patients without cardiovascular outcome from various databases across world.
  
-**Rationale:​** ​//The goal of antihypertensive therapy is to reduce cardiovascular end points including stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart failure by lowering ​blood pressure. Although it is evident that BP reduction per se is the primary determinant ​of CV risk reduction, ​the choice ​of initial drug therapy ​can exert some effect on long-term outcomesMany large randomized trials ​have shown that two or more antihypertensive agents are required for reaching their treatment ​goalsFurthermorerecent data have suggested that the use of combination ​therapy in patients with hypertension may be beneficial for blood-pressure-lowering efficacyobtaining blood pressure goals earlier, and reducing major adverse ​cardiovascular ​events. To date, However, ​the best combination treatment in hypertension ​have not been demonstrated. The evidence through OHDSI network can help clinicians to select the combination treatment for their patients.//+**Rationale:​** ​High blood pressure is the leading global burden ​of death and disability. Extensive evidences support ​the beneficial effects in tight control ​of blood pressure. Since monotherapy is often insufficient or slow to reach blood pressure target quickly, combination ​therapy ​is recommended as the first-line treatment for selected patients with hypertension by the recent guideline to reduce cardiovascular riskRetrospective observational studies and meta-analysis ​have suggested ​that initial combination hypertensive ​treatment ​confers decreased risk for cardiovascular events than monotherapyOnly a few randomized clinical trials, however, have directly compared ​the effects of different regimens ​of combination. In addition to limited number of evidences from head-to-head comparisonbaseline high risk for cardiovascular ​outcome and previous history of anti-hypertensive medication of participants also make the findings from RCTs difficult to apply to clinical practice. To the best of our knowledge, real-world comparative effectiveness research comparing the various regimens of combination treatment in patients with essential ​hypertension ​has not been conducted until now
