Abbreviations: AIx, augmentation index; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; MAP, mean arterial pressure; PP, pulse pressure; SE, standard error; SBP, systolic blood pressure. Non‐thiazide diuretic Non‐(TD) antihypertensive includes angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), β‐blockers, calcium channel blockers, and other antihypertensive agents (diuretics [other than thiazide‐type], antiadrenergic agents, and agents acting on the renin‐angiotensin system [excluding ACE inhibitors and ARBs]). In all models, TD was the reference category. aAdjusted for sex, age, quadratic age, body mass index (BMI), quadratic BMI, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, hypercholesterolemia, comorbidities, smoking, alcohol intake, heart rate, and high blood pressure onset date. bAdjusted for all previous variables and height instead of BMI.
