aNumbers are presented as mean (SD), median (q1, q3), and P values. Crude and adjusted P values are shown for the differences in mean or median change (δ) between baseline and 2-week follow-up, comparing the intervention and usual care groups.
bAdjusted for gender, age, weight, previous heart disease, and smoking status at the time of the index event.
cSBP: systolic blood pressure.
dDBP: diastolic blood pressure.
eNot adjusted for weight.
