Adjusted means for cardiometabolic risk factors by antihypertensive medication type. All models adjusted for age, gender, BMI, education, health insurance, smoking, and physical activity levels. Further adjustment for type 2 diabetes performed on FPG. ACE = ACE inhibitor; BB = β-blocker; DI = diuretics; CCB = calcium channel blocker; ARB = angiotensin receptor blocker; TG = triglyceride; HDL = high-density lipoprotein; WC = waist circumference. a = significantly different from No BP Drug (); b = significantly different from diuretics (); c = significantly different from BB (); d = significantly different from CCB (). Dashed line is the no BP drug group.
