  2. *reference.
  3. Adherence to screening was not included in the multivariate analysis as the number of events were too small.
  4. Adherence to recommendations on diagnosis, treatment and blood pressure target have no characteristic factors univariately associated (p-value ≤ 0.20) with them (see Table 3).
