  2. CI confifidence interval, OR odds ratio, Ref. reference
  3. aWhen two eyes are involved in one person, one eye is randomly selected if the two eyes are equally graded. If the two eyes are not equal, we choose a higher octa grade as the classification of patients with hypertensive retinopathy. Renal damage was defined by an estimated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2
