aTRH, apparent treatment-resistant hypertension (defined as systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥140 and/or ≥90 while taking ≥3 antihypertensive drugs or number of antihypertensive drugs ≥4); cHT, controlled hypertension (defined as systolic and diastolic blood pressure <140/90 mm Hg while taking 1−3 antihypertensive drugs); CKD, chronic kidney disease (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73m2); HR, hazard ratio; IR, incidence rate; ucHT, uncontrolled hypertension (systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥140 and /or ≥90 while taking 1 or 2 antihypertensive drugs).

cCombined fatal and nonfatal stroke and CHD: defined as the recurrence of either a stroke or CHD.

a

All models were adjusted for center, sex, diabetes, body mass index, hypercholesterolemia, smoking status, and education level.

b

All interactions between hypertension control status and chronic kidney disease.

c

Combined fatal and nonfatal stroke and CHD: defined as the recurrence of either a stroke or CHD.
