Absolute risk reduction (ARR) is the absolute risk difference between before and after percentages, while the relative risk reduction (RRR) consists of the ARR as a percentage of the risk factor before hypertension diagnosis.
*The likelihood of the presence of the risk factor after hypertension was diagnosed, adjusted for age, sex and the same lifestyle factor in the previous year;
†The likelihood of the lifestyle factor in the cycle before hypertension was reported, adjusted for age and sex. CMH Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel
