HBP, home blood pressure; HSBP, home systolic blood pressure; * Model 2: Odds ratios were adjusted for sex, age, duration of diabetes mellitus, body mass index, hemoglobin A1C, total cholesterol, creatinine, and the use of antihypertensive medications. * Model 3: Odds ratios were adjusted for variables in Model 2 and additional adjustment for the use of renin–angiotensin system inhibitors instead of the use of antihypertensive medications.
