Clinical characteristics of obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus on
blood pressure measured at end-point were shown. The obesity was defined
by the criteria using body mass index (BMI) of Japan Society for the Study of
Obesity. BMI with ≧ 25.0 kg/m2 was defined as obesity. Blood
pressure using clinic blood pressure (CBP) and home blood pressure (HBP)
measured once in each clinic visit and in the same morning at each clinic visit
within 10 minutes after awakening in the sitting position were measured at
end-point as the same threshold shown as normotension with less than 130 mmHg
of systolic blood pressure measurements in morning HBP and CBP. Two tailed
values of P < 0.05 were defined as statistically significant.
Abbreviation: HT: Hypertension, NT: Normotension
