Table 1 Baseline characteristics, by systolic blood pressure (SBP), diabetes and BMI at baseline. Data are % or mean (SD). Results are standardised to the age and sex of the 125 939 participants. Participants with no follow-up at ages 35-79 years, those with pre-existing vascular disease at baseline, and those with missing or outlying values for SBP, diabetes, BMI or key covariates were excluded. Baseline characteristics by four groups of BMI are given for clarity, but are given by 7 groups in Appendix, Table S4
