Table 5 Variation in systolic and diastolic hypertension by age

From: Suboptimal blood pressure control in chronic kidney disease stage 3: baseline data from a cohort study in primary care

  

Proportion with isolated systolic hypertension (SBP >140)

Proportion with isolated diastolic hypertension (DBP >90)

Proportion with both systolic and diastolic hypertension (SBP >140 and DBP > 90)

Proportion with normal blood pressure (both SBP < 140 and DBP <90)
