Introduction Unexplained differences between classes of antihypertensive drugs in their effectiveness in preventing stroke might be due to Class effects on intraindividual variability in blood pressure. We did a systematic review to assess any such effects in randomised controlled trials.Methods Baseline and follow-up data for mean (SD) of systolic blood pressure (SBP) were extracted from trial reports. Effect of treatment on interindividual variance (SD2) in blood pressure (a surrogate for within-individual variability), expressed as the ratio of the variances (VR), was related to effects on clinical outcomes. Pooled estimates were derived by use of random-effects meta-analysis.Findings Mean (SD) SBP at follow-up was reported in 389 (28%) of 1372 eligible trials. There was substantial heterogeneity between trials in VR (p
