^aAwareness: Self-reported diagnosis by a health professional among those meeting the definition of hypertension.

^bTreatment: Self-reported use of medication among those meeting the definition of hypertension.

^cControl: Measured systolic blood pressure <140 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure <90 mm Hg, among those meeting the definition of hypertension.

^dHypertension: Systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg or self-reported use of medication.

^e P-value for linear trend in across age groups from baseline to follow-up, at α = 0.05.
