a T test was used to calculate P value. bN for systolic blood pressure/diastolic blood pressure (SBP/DBP) is 528, and the means are the average blood pressures (BPs) during the 12‐ through 36‐month visits. cNumbers in parentheses are one standard deviation for continuous variables and 95% confidence interval for percentages. dGoal: aggressive group (SBP ≤117/DBP ≤75 mm Hg); standard group (SBP 124–136/DBP ≤80 mm Hg).
