Groups 2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Hydrochlorothiazide | Participants remained on the existing hydrochlorothiazide treatment regimen (a daily dose of 25 or 50 mg). | 83 | 6,767 | OG000 | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Group 2 | Chlorthalidone | Participants switched to an equivalent dose of chlorthalidone (a daily dose of 12.5 or 25 mg). | 83 | 6,756 | OG001 | ClinicalTrials.gov |

| Title | Proportion of Participants Had Nonfatal Stroke | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Description | Secondary outcomes were the individual components of the primary outcome. Ascertainment of study outcomes was made with the use of administrative and clinical data obtained from VA EHRs through June 1, 2022, from records of Medicare claims obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services through 2021, and from National Death Index records through 2019. Trial outcomes were ascertained with the use of validated EHR phenotypes and, when needed, manual adjudication. Manually adjudicated outcomes were evaluated by investigators and staff who were unaware of group assignment. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Time frame | Outcome data collection was performed from study randomization until the participants deceased, withdrawn, or reached end of study (Up to 5.4 years for the first patient enrolled and an average of 2.4 years for all participants). | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Population | Analysis of secondary outcome was performed according to the intention-to-treat principle. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
