All blood pressure components were log-transformed; 1education was coded as some formal education vs. no education; 2SES was coded as those with highest vs. those with lowest SES; 3smoking status was coded as those who are current or past smokers vs. those who never smoked; ∗∗∗p value < 0.001; ∗∗p value < 0.005; ∗p value < 0.05.
