- SBP: Systolic blood pressure.
- * First SBP is the first systolic blood pressure measurement after the index date. Average SBP is the average of all systolic blood pressure measurements after the index date and prior to any changes in the antihypertensive therapy.
- ** Estimate of SBP is the estimate difference between celecoxib and the comparator drug (ibuprofen or naproxen) after controlling for baseline SBP. A positive value means celecoxib is associated with higher increase in systolic blood pressure compared to the comparator drug. A negative value means the comparator drug is associated with higher increase in systolic blood pressure compared to celecoxib.
