Table 2.

Multivariable linear regression model for morning-evening blood pressure difference.

Variable Beta-coefficient  
(95% CI)
P value
Systolic morning-evening home BP difference
 Age 0.12 (0.03–0.21) 0.007
 Smoking habit −7.52 (−11.44–[−3.61]) <0.0001
Diastolic morning-evening home BP difference
 Age 0.07 (0.03–0.12) 0.001
 Total cholesterol 0.99 (0.38–1.6) 0.002
 CCB use 1.44 (0.21–2.66) 0.02
 Smoking habit −2.91 (−4.81–[−1.02]) 0.003

Adjusted R 2 values for the model were 6.2% for systolic and 8.5% (P < 0.0001) for diastolic morning-evening BP difference, respectively.
