Relationship between LVMI at age 60–64 years and rate of change in systolic blood pressure at three time periods (36–43 years), (43–53 years), and (53–60 to 64 years) on LVMI (n = 1085)

Period of rate of change in systolic blood pressure	Model 1		Model 2
	β (95% CI)	P	β (95% CI)	P
36–43 years	1.38 (−0.25, 3.01)	0.096	0.42 (−1.20, 2.04)	0.612
43–53 years	5.10 (3.53, 6.67)	<0.001	3.12 (1.53, 4.72)	<0.001
53–60/64 years	1.62 (0.10, 3.15)	0.037	1.87 (0.35, 3.38)	0.016

The variable β is regression coefficients for LVMI (g/m²) for a 1 SD increase in systolic blood pressure in each interval. CI, confidence interval. Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, and CRF attended. Model 2: Model 1 + T2DM + BMI + smoking status + physical activity status + current HTT.
