T52 954-1093 Sentence denotes The vast majority of hypertensive patients had received the current therapeutic regimens shown in supplementary Table S1 for over one year.
T53 1094-1204 Sentence denotes The blood pressure of patients was well-controlled with the above therapeutic regimens during hospitalization.
T54 1205-1311 Sentence denotes The comparison of baseline characteristics between the two groups is summarized in supplementary Table S2.
T55 1312-1420 Sentence denotes The median age of the analyzed subjects was 64.5 years (IQR, 55.8–69.0 years), and 57.1% of them were males.
T56 1421-1539 Sentence denotes No significant differences in hypertension grades were observed between the ACEI/ARB group and the non-ACEI/ARB group.
T57 1540-1586 Sentence denotes Both groups showed similar signs and symptoms.
T58 1587-1726 Sentence denotes The median number of days from the onset of symptoms to hospital admission was 2.0 in the non-ACEI/ARB group and 3.0 in the ACEI/ARB group.
T59 1727-1881 Sentence denotes Meanwhile, the median number of days from symptom onset to hospital discharge was 16.5 days in the non-ACEI/ARB group and 20.0 days in the ACEI/ARB group.
T60 1882-1990 Sentence denotes The median heart rate and respiratory rate from the non-ACEI/ARB group were 90.5 bpm and 20.0, respectively.
T61 1991-2114 Sentence denotes In comparison, the median heart rate and respiratory rate from the non-ACEI/ARB group were 80.0 bmp and 20.0, respectively.

T70 3130-3223 Sentence denotes There were no significant changes in CD4+ T cell counts between the two groups (Figure 1(C)).
T71 3224-3464 Sentence denotes In addition, although the viral load was not different between the two groups at hospital admission, the peak viral load during hospitalization in the ACEI/ARB group was significantly lower than that in the non-ACEI/ARB group (Figure 1(D)).
