I2 is a measure of heterogeneity between cohorts, and phet is a p-value for the Q-test of heterogeneity. aAdjusted for age, sex, BMI, smoking status, pack-years of smoking, passive smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, educational level, economic activity, neighborhood SES (including a random intercept for a neighborhood). bEstimated change in BP refers to the indicated exposure increment. cFINRISK, HUBRO, 60-year-olds, SDPP, SNAC-K, TwinGene, EPIC-MORGEN, EPIC-Prospect, HNR, KORA, SAPALDIA (Lugano site), REGICOR; n(total) = 91,574; n(nonmedicated) = 79,404; n(medicated) = 12,170. dFINRISK, HUBRO, 60-year-olds, SDPP, SNAC-K, TwinGene, EPIC-Umeå, EPIC-MORGEN, EPIC-Prospect, HNR, KORA, SAPALDIA, REGICOR; n(total) = 114,648; n(nonmedicated) = 99,705; n(medicated) = 14,943. eFINRISK, HUBRO, 60-year-olds, SDPP, SNAC-K, TwinGene, EPIC-Umeå, EPIC-MORGEN, EPIC-Prospect, KORA, SAPALDIA, REGICOR; n(total) = 110,033; n(nonmedicated) = 96,717; n(medicated) = 13,316. |
