The role of healthy lifestyle categories and score trend in managing hypertension among hypertensive adults.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Despite the widespread use of antihypertensive medications, many patients struggle to achieve hypertension control, underscoring the need for additional strategies like lifestyle modification. Limited evidence exists on the impact of healthy lifestyle groups on hypertension control among individuals taking or not taking medication. This study assessed the effect of healthy lifestyle categories and scores on blood pressure control, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) among hypertensive adults in Iran. Data from the 2021 nationwide STEPwise Approach to non-communicable disease Risk Factor Surveillance survey were analyzed. Lifestyle variables, including physical activity, body mass index, alcohol consumption, tobacco use, and dietary habits, were scored for 9388 hypertensive adults ≥ 18 years across rural and urban regions from 2016 to 2021. Multivariable analysis, adjusted for antihypertensive medication use, showed that moderate and good lifestyle groups were associated with 9% (OR 0.91 [95% CI 0.85-1.04]) and 15% (OR 0.85 [95% CI 0.72-1.01]) lower odds of uncontrolled hypertension, respectively. These groups also significantly lowered SBP by - 1.22 (- 2.16 to - 0.23) and - 1.39 (- 2.54 to - 0.26) mmHg and DBP by - 1.01 (- 1.62 to - 0.41) and - 1.47 (- 2.21 to - 0.73) mmHg. These findings emphasize the potential of lifestyle interventions as part of public health strategies for blood pressure control.
