CD4 and Hypertension: HIV-related variables such as advanced CD4 count (aHR: 2.28, 95% CI 1.50–3.45, p = 0.0001), severe CD4 count (aHR: 2.48, 95% CI 1.71–3.61, p = 0.0000), ART regimens 1T3E (aHR: 3.39, 95% CI 1.62–7.09, p = 0.0012) and 1TFE (aHR: 5.99, 95% CI 3.19–11.27, p = 0.0000) were also identified as risk factors associated with the development of hypertension; Table 2.
