Figure 2 Prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension to recommended systolic goal (<130 mm Hg) by chronic kidney disease stage. Note total cohort has an N=10,813. Prevalence is defined by systolic blood pressure≥130 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure≥80 mm Hg or use of medication. All comparisons between stages for all categories at P<.0001.

Figure 3 Prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension in total cohort by chronic kidney disease stage with<140/90 mm Hg as a threshold. Note total cohort has an N=10,813. Prevalence of systolic blood pressure≥140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure≥90 mm Hg or use of medication. All comparisons between stages are significant to a P<.0001. BP=blood pressure.
