Prevalence of Hypertension at Each Year of the EDlC Study
Prevalence of hypertension (defined as blood pressure >140/90 mm Hg) at the end of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) and during the Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Comptications (EDIC) study for participants in the intensive- vs conventional-treatment groups. The aggregate odds reduction with intensive vs conventional therapy of emergent hypertension during the EDIC study, adjusted for DCCT mean arterial pressure, was 40.4% (95% confidence interval, 33.7%-46.5%; P<.001).
