  1. Data are β-coefficients of linear regression (95% confidence interval). Model 1: adjusted for age (continuous), sex, education level, current smoking, and current alcohol consumption; Model 2: Model 1 + body mass index, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and SBP at baseline (all continuous); Model 3: Model 2 + change in body mass index (continuous); Model 4: Model 3 + HbA1c at baseline (continuous). * In Models 2–4 with change in DBP as the dependent variable, DBP at baseline instead of SBP at baseline was adjusted. CI confidence interval; HbA1c glycated hemoglobin A1c; SBP systolic blood pressure; DBP diastolic blood pressure
