Article in Belitung nursing journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia continues to increase, particularly in Bali. However, existing research focusing on health literacy in Indonesia, especially among older adults with hypertension, is still limited and outdated. Objective: This cross-sectional predictive design study aimed to examine the level of health literacy among older adults with hypertension and its associated factors. Methods: Two hundred ninety-six eligible older adults with hypertension were purposively selected from two regencies in Bali. Data were collected from March to April 2025 using the Demographic Characteristic Questionnaire, the Short-Form Health Literacy Survey (HLS-SF12), the Perceived Severity of Illness Questionnaire (PSIQ), and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression. Results: The findings showed an adequate level of health literacy among older adults with hypertension. The regression model explained 47.80% of the variance in health literacy ( Conclusion: Perceptions of illness severity, along with social support and social activity engagement, play a fundamental role in shaping the health literacy of older adults with hypertension in Bali. These findings can guide nurses in developing a tailored education program to help older adults better understand illness severity and promote social integration.
