Note. DBP = diastolic blood pressure; HBP = high blood pressure; IQR = interquartile range; SBP = systolic blood pressure; SD = standard deviation.
a
IQR (75th percentile minus 25th percentile).
b
Mean change from baseline to 16 weeks divided by the standard deviation of the mean paired difference.
