Table 3 Comparison of the coronary computed tomography angiography parameters between normotension group and hypertension group after matching

	Normotension group, n = 167	Hypertension group, n = 167	P value
Age (years)	58.65 ± 8.75	59.16 ± 8.90	0.598
Male sex, n (%)	69 (41.3)	62 (37.1)	0.433
Body mass index (kg/m²)	23.74 ± 3.14	24.03 ± 3.25	0.657
Smoking, n (%)	29 (17.4)	32 (19.2)	0.671
Dyslipidemia, n (%)	77 (46.1)	76 (45.5)	0.913
Statin, n (%)	107 (64.1)	109 (65.3)	0.819
Tube voltage (kVp), n (%)			0.325
100	107 (64.1)	104 (62.3)
120	58 (34.7)	63 (37.7)
140	2 (1.2)	0 (0.0)
LAD-PCAT (HU)	-77.59 ± 7.44	-76.23 ± 7.45	0.008
LCX-PCAT (HU)	-70.99 ± 7.10	-71.24 ± 7.23	0.759

High-risk plaques, n (%)
Any LAP	37 (22.2)	57 (34.1)	0.015
Any SC	51 (30.5)	53 (31.7)	0.013
Any NRS	54 (32.3)	53 (31.7)	0.907
Any PR	87 (52.1)	107 (64.1)	0.027
OS, n (%)	24 (14.4)	43 (25.7)	0.009

Data are showed as means ± SD, median (25^th and 75^th percentile), or n (%). LAD: Left anterior descending artery; LCX: Left circumflex artery; RCA: Right coronary artery; PCAT: Pericoronary adipose tissue; NRS: Napkin-ring sign; SC: Spotty calcification; LAP: Low attenuation plaque; PR: Positive remodeling; OS: Obstructive stenosis.
