bHypertension was defined as follows: for patients without baseline hypertension, an average of three systolic blood pressure readings ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure readings ≥ 90 mmHg at two consecutive visits; for patients with baseline hypertension, an average of three readings showing increases from baseline of ≥ 20 mmHg systolic blood pressure or ≥ 10 mmHg diastolic blood pressure at two consecutive visits; for any patients, increased dosing or initiation of any medication to treat hypertension
