Hazard ratios (HRs) are adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, diabetes mellitus, antihypertensive treatment, smoking, total cholesterol/high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio, triglycerides, lipid‐lowering medications, heart rate, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. CPP indicates central pulse pressure; CVD, cardiovascular disease; MAP, mean arterial pressure; PWV, pulse wave velocity; TOD, target organ damage.
