Table 2.

Concordance between classes and drivers of pulse pressure: the distribution of systolic and diastolic BP-trajectory class membership within each class of pulse pressure. Row percentages are presented.

Systolic BP: Diastolic BP:	Normal Normal % (95% CI)	Normal Increaser/High % (95% CI)	Increaser/High Normal % (95% CI)	Increaser/High Increaser/High % (95% CI)
m
Pulse pressure
Normative	(n=1667)	(n=19)	(n=41)	(n=17)
	95.6 (94.5 to 96.5)	1.1 (0.7 to 1.7)	2.4 (1.7 to 3.2)	0.7 (0.6 to 1.6)
Increaser	(n=27)	(n=0)	(n=37)	(n=7)
	38.0 (26.8 to 50.3)	0 (0 to 5.0)	52.1 (39.9 to 64.1)	(9.9)
Decreaser	(n=22)	(n=1)	(n=1)	(n=1)
	88.0 (68.9 to 97.4)	4.0 (0.1 to 20.3)	4.0 (0.1 to 20.3)	4.0 (0.1 to 20.3)
w
Pulse pressure
Normative	(n=1604)	(n=26)	(n=24)	(n=23)
	95.6 (94.6 to 96.6)	1.6 (1.0 to 2.3)	1.4 (0.9 to 2.1)	1.4 (0.9 to 2.1)
Increaser	(n=54)	(n=1)	(n=61)	(n=14)
	41.5 (33.0 to 50.5)	0.8 (0.0 to 4.2)	46.9 (38.1 to 55.9)	10.8 (6.0 to 17.4)
High	(n=2)	(n=0)	(n=5)	(n=5)
	16.7 (2.1 to 48.4)	0 (0 to 26.5)	41.7 (15.2 to 72.3)	41.7(15.2 to 72.3)

For women only, we pooled the “increaser” and “high” classes because of low cell counts.
