Abbreviations: COH, consensus orthostatic hypotension (n = 778); IDOH—isolated diastolic orthostatic hypotension (n = 177); ISOH, isolated systolic orthostatic hypotension (n = 485); No OH (n = 3079); SDOH—combined systolic and diastolic orthostatic hypotension (n = 116).

The odds ratios are unadjusted and compare the odds of co‐morbidity among participants with OH, or its components, to those without OH.
