Odds Ratios (ORs) of Incident ROA across SBP Quartiles. There were 1930 participants, contributing 6040 observation periods, for a total of 192 events.

	Incidence of ROA by Systolic BP Quartile	Unadjusted OR (95% CI)	OR (95% CI) Adjusted for Age, Sex, BMI, PASE, NSAID use, number of anti-hypertensive meds, diabetes meds, cholesterol meds

SBP Quartile 2 (112 – 121)	54/1571 (3.4%)	1.6 (1.1 – 2.5)	1.6 (1.0 – 2.5)
SBP Quartile 3 (122 – 130)	51/1396 (3.7%)	1.7 (1.1 – 2.7)	1.7 (1.1 – 2.6)
