Parentheses indicate standard deviations.

Other cardiovascular risk factors include age, sex, body mass index, smoking, fasting plasma glucose, and total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

24-h = average 24-hour measurements; B = brachial measurements; C = central measurements; N = average nighttime measurements. PP = pulse pressure; SBP = systolic blood pressure.
