4 Underlying secular trend in rate of prescription of antihypertensives or statins (in absence of the intervention). Underlying secular trend in rate of prescription of antihypertensives or statins (in absence of the intervention). BP = blood pressure. LOWESS = locally weighted scatterplot smoothing. Solid line is a smooth LOWESS fit to each of the point estimates. Karla Hemming et al. Br J Gen Pract 2016;66:e758-e767 ©2016 by British Journal of General Practice
