Table 3. Demographic and baseline characteristics of the participants.
Data are presented as mean ± SD. BMI: body mass index; SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; MBP: mean blood pressure; HR: heart rate. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Intergroup comparison was done using an unpaired t-test.
