Blood pressure outcomes at 6 months post-procedure. (A) Changes in office and ambulatory SBP and DBP from baseline at 6 months post-procedure (RDN vs. sham control). Values are mean ± SD; RDN, renal denervation; BP, blood pressure; SBP, systolic BP; DBP, diastolic BP; 24H ASBP, 24 h ambulatory SBP; 24H ADBP, 24 h ambulatory DBP. Between-group differences were adjusted for the corresponding baseline BP measurements (using ANCOVA). Two patients (one in the RDN group and one in the sham group) were lost at 6-month follow-up. Last observation carried forward was used only for the primary endpoint (office SBP) analysis (RDN = 137, sham = 66); other endpoint analyses were based on RDN = 136, sham = 65. (B) Percentage of patients with SBP within target range (90 mmHg ≤ SBP < 140 mmHg). (C) Twenty-four hour ambulatory SBP at baseline and 6 months post-procedure (RDN vs. sham). Daytime is defined as 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., night-time 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.; error bars represent the standard error
