eTable 5. Effects on systolic and diastolic 24-h blood pressure in the yoga group with yoga postures (Yoga A; n = 11) and the yoga group without yoga postures (Yoga B; n = 13).

Outcome measure	Group	Measurement time		Group difference [95% CI] week 28
Outcome measure	Group	Week 1	Week 28	Group difference [95% CI] week 28
24-h SBP	Yoga A	131.7 ± 12.3	130.0 ± 8.6	−5.3 [−10.9; 0.3]; p = 0.060
24-h SBP	Yoga B	131.1 ± 10.1	134.9 ± 12.7	–
24-h DBP	Yoga A	83.6 ± 12.8	82.4 ± 9.3	−1.3 [−4.4; 1.99]; p = 0.409
24-h DBP	Yoga B	83.1 ± 11.7	82.7 ± 9.3	–

Effects expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Only patients who did not continue to practice yoga after week 12 were included in this analysis. Group differences were calculated within covariance models that controlled for baseline values.

CI = confidence interval, DBP = diastolic blood pressure, SBP = systolic blood pressure
