Development and validation of the Hypertension Self-care Profile: a practical tool to measure hypertension self-care.
Article in The Journal of cardiovascular nursing. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundAdequate self-care is crucial for blood pressure control. A number of hypertension (HBP) self-care instruments are available, but existing tools do not capture all the critical domains of HBP self-care and have limited evidence of reliability and validity.
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to develop and validate a new tool--the HBP Self-Care Profile (HBP SCP)--in a sample of inner-city residents.
methodsThe HBP SCP encompasses comprehensive domains of HBP self-care behaviors. Guided by 2 validated theoretical approaches--Orem's self-care model and Motivational Interviewing--the HBP SCP includes 3 scales that can be used together or independently: Behavior, Motivation, and Self-efficacy. The sample included 213 English-speaking inner-city residents with HBP (mean age, 68.6 years; 76.1% women; 81.7% African American).
resultsItem-total correlations ranged from 0.20 to 0.63 for Behavior, 0.46 to 0.70 for Motivation, and 0.40 to 0.74 for Self-efficacy, meeting the cutoff set a priori at 0.15. Internal consistency reliability coefficients ranged from 0.83 to 0.93. Concurrent and construct validities of the HBP SCP were achieved by significant correlations between HBP SCP scales and theoretically selected instruments (P < .05 for all correlation coefficients). The HBP SCP-Behavior scale also successfully discriminated between those with or without blood pressure control (P < .05).
conclusionsThe reliability and validity of the HBP SCP were supported in this sample of inner-city residents with HBP. The high reliability estimates and strong evidence of validity should allow researchers to use the HBP SCP to assess and identify gaps in HBP self-care behavior, motivation, and self-efficacy. Future research is warranted to evaluate the HBP SCP in diverse ethnic and age samples of hypertensive patient populations.
