25th and 75th percentile. All change values were normally distributed, so mean change and standard deviation (sd) are presented.

Intervention effect is estimated from a meta-analysis of centre level linear or logistic regression model, with the characteristic at follow-up as the outcome, adjusted for baseline value and with robust standard errors allowing for clustering by general practice.
