Background: Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor serves as a receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus causing COVID-19, to enter the lungs. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) may increase the expression of ACE2, resulting in concerns that patients with COVID-19 who are receiving these agents may be at increased risk of severe disease. This study was conducted to further investigate the effects of ACEIs and ARBs on the severity of COVID-19 in hospitalized hypertensive patients.
