Text: There were significantly fewer cerebral strokes in patients receiving diltiazem in the subgroups with baseline SBP > 170 mmHg (n = 5420, RR 0. 75, 95 % CI 0. 58 to 0. 98 ; P = 0. 032), DBP > / = 105 mmHg (n = 5881, RR 0. 74, 95 % CI 0. 57 to 0. 97 ; P = 0. 030) and pulse pressure > / = 66 mmHg (n = 5461, RR 0. 76, 95 % CI 0. 58 to 0. 99, P = 0. 041), and more myocardial infarctions in those with heart rate less than 74 beats/min (n = 5303, RR 1. 13, 95 % CI 1. 01 to 1. 87 ; P = 0. 040).
