QUARTET LDQT
Patients randomized to the intervention arm took a once daily ultra-low-dose quadruple combination therapy (QUARTET LDQT). The LDQT is an overencapsulated combination pill comprising four types of blood pressure lowering medications each at ¼ standard doses. QUARTET includes candesartan 2mg, amlodipine besylate 1.25mg, indapamide 0.625mg, and bisoprolol 2.5mg. The individual components are currently approved and marketed within the United States. QUARTET LDQT: Ultra-low-dose combination therapy comprising four different blood pressure lowering drugs at 1/4 dosages. Taken once daily for 12 weeks.
Candesartan
Patients randomized to the comparison arm took a once daily 8mg candesartan. Candesartan: Standard monotherapy of 8mg candesartan. Taken once daily for 12 weeks.

Mean change (from baseline) in health-related quality of life using Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global Health instrument. PROMIS Global Health is a gauge of general health-care related quality of life. Possible PROMIS Global Physical Health and Global Mental Health scores range from 0-20, with 20 indicating best possible state of health. Raw scores are converted to T-scores to compare to a standardized population. A PROMIS T-score of 50 represents the mean of the population (SD = 10). Higher values here also indicate better health. A positive change in T score, as reported in this outcome measure, would represent an improvement in Global Physical Health or Global Mental Health at 12 weeks compared to baseline.
