Purpose: Whether elevated remnant cholesterol (RC) is associated with hypertension (HTN) and whether elevated RC interacts with diabetes on the subsequent risk of HTN have not been illustrated. Thus, this study is aimed to investigate the associations and interactions of RC, diabetes, and the management of cardiovascular risk factors with the risk of incident HTN in a Chinese population. Patients and methods: This cohort study included 42,994 individuals who participated in the routine health check-up from April 2016 to August 2020 and follow-ups from April 2017 to August 2021 at the Medical Examination Center of Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital. RC was divided into quintiles as follows: the < 20% group, the 20-39% group, the 40-59% group, the 60-79% group, and the ≥ 80% group. This study finally included 17,006 participants who were free from HTN at baseline. Results: This study had 1,861 (10.90%) HTN occurred, 205 (5.30%) in the first quintile of RC, 335 (8.98%) in the second quintile of RC, 388 (11.17%) in the third quintile of RC, 420 (13.42%) in the fourth quintile of RC, and 513 (17.91%) in the fifth quintile of RC. Compared with participants in the first quintile of RC, participants in the fifth quintile of RC showed a greater risk of HTN events among participants with diabetes [hazard ratio (HR), 4.95; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.05-23.39; P = 0.0432) than among participants without diabetes (HR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.26-2.22, P = 0.0004; P for interaction = 0.0420).
