Associations between systolic blood pressure, antihypertensive treatment, and change in function after a 1-year follow-up.

GARS = Groningen Activity Restriction Scale; MMSE = Mini-Mental State Examination.

Note: Numbers in or above bars equal number of participants.

Estimates, 95% CI, and P for trend from crude mixed-effects linear regression accounting for clustering within family physicians. A. Cognitive function measured by MMSE (fewer points = cognitive decline). B. Daily functioning measured by GARS (more points = more disability). C. Quality of life measured by EQ-5D-3L (fewer points = lower quality of life).
