Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| difference of mean and standard deviation of the entire 24-h period and separately for the daytime period and the nighttime period between two groups after treatment, which is measured by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| difference of other parameters for blood pressure variability such as weighted standard deviation, coefficient of variation, average real variability. Primary and secondary outcomes were evaluated at baseline and 8 weeks | — |
