Association between hemoglobin level and orthostatic blood pressure change

	∆ SBP			∆ DBP
	B a	95% CI	P	B a	95% CI	P
Model 1	−1.4	0.3	<.001	−0.6	0.2	<.001
Model 2	−1.1	0.3	<.001	−0.6	0.2	.003
Model 3	−0.7	0.3	.035	−0.4	0.2	.049

Model 1: adjusted for age and sex;

Model 2: Model 1 + body mass index, current smoker, diabetes, previous cardiovascular disease, use of antihypertensive medications, statins, systolic blood pressure, albumin, and carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity.

Model 3: Model 2 + eGFR.

Abbreviations: ∆ DBP, orthostatic diastolic blood pressure reduction; ∆ SBP, orthostatic systolic blood pressure reduction; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate.

^aAll estimates were calculated per 10 g/L increase in hemoglobin.
