Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the clinical symptoms and physical findings in patients infected with COVID-19, comparing hypertensive (high blood pressure) and nonhypertensive groups through a single-center retrospective observational analysis of 280 patients.
- - Among the participants, the average age was about 67.75 years, with a notable 17% in-hospital mortality rate, and no significant differences were found in common symptoms like fever and cough between the two groups.
- - The results indicate that hypertension is linked to worse outcomes and higher mortality in COVID-19 patients, emphasizing the need for proper blood pressure management and care for older patients with hypertension and other conditions.
