Self-management assessment tools for people with hypertension: a scoping review.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundThis is a scoping review of the evidence for the use of the Patient Self-Management Assessment Tool for Hypertension (PAT) in people with hypertension. This review examines the content features, reliability, and validity of the PAT for people with Hypertension, as well as contextual and environmental evidence for the tool implementation in clinical practice.
objectiveTo synthesize and evaluate the self-management assessment tools available for people with hypertensive, and to guide healthcare professionals in selecting appropriate tools.
methodsA systematic search was conducted across nine databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), VIP (VIP Information Database), CMB (China Biology Medicine disc) and Wanfang, from their inception to August 17, 2024. The authors extracted and analyzed self-management assessment tools developed for people with hypertension, using a scoping review approach to report the findings.
resultsA total of 41 papers were identified, which reported on 20 assessment tools. These included 12 multidimensional assessment tools for assessing self-management and 8 unidimensional assessment tools for measuring adherence to self-management practices.
conclusionThe quality of self-management assessment tools for people with hypertension varies widely. There is a need to develop tailored tools for different patient populations to accurately assess self-management capabilities, design intervention strategies, and enhance patient engagement in hypertension management.
