Self-blood pressure monitoring is associated with improved awareness, adherence, and attainment of target blood pressure goals: Prospective observational study of 7751 patients.
Observational study in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We investigated whether self-blood pressure monitoring (SBPM) can improve the control rate of blood pressure (BP), adherence of antihypertensive medications, and the awareness of the importance of BP control in hypertensive patients. A total of 7751 patients who visited the outpatient clinics of private and university hospitals in Korea were given automatic electronic BP monitors and were recommended to measure their BP daily at home for 3 months. Changes in office BP, attainment of target BP, adherence to taking antihypertensive drugs, and awareness of BP were compared before and after SBPM. Patients and physicians were surveyed on their perception of BP and SBPM. Mean BP significantly decreased from 142/88 to 129/80 mm Hg (P < .001), and attainment of the target BP increased from 32% to 59% (P < .001) after SBPM. Drug non-adherence, which was defined as patient's not taking medication days per week, decreased significantly from 0.86 days to 0.53 days (P < .001). The rate of awareness of the BP goal increased from 57% to 81% (P < .001). Patients estimated that their mean BP was 125/81 mm Hg, but their actual mean BP was 142/88 mm Hg. Awareness about the importance of SBPM increased from 90% to 98%. The rate of SBPM ≥ once per week further increased, from 34% to 96%. In conclusion, SBPM is associated with reduced BP, better BP control rate, greater drug adherence, and improved perception of BP by the patients.
