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: Self-care behavior is crucial in preventing chronic diseases, such as hypertension, which has become highly prevalent in Indonesia. Hypertension, often referred to as the "silent killer" due to its asymptomatic nature, can easily go unnoticed. Neglecting its treatment can lead to severe complications, including heart disease, heart failure, and stroke. Despite adults with hypertension feeling well, embracing self-care behavior, including making healthy lifestyle choices, disease management, and enhancing life quality, remains essential. Objective: This study aimed to describe the self-care behavior of adult patients with hypertension in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 270 participants selected through consecutive sampling. Data were collected between 15 March and 4 April 2023, using the Hypertension Blood Pressure Self Care Profile (HBP-SCP) questionnaire in six public healthcare centers in Padang City, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results: The self-care behavior among adult patients with hypertension was at a moderate level (Mean = 49.78, SD = 6.64), and it had significant differences according to ethnicity ( Conclusion: The findings highlight the influence of diverse ethnic backgrounds, various marital statuses, and differing body mass index levels, which may lead to distinct approaches to managing hypertension. These results offer valuable insights for nurses and other healthcare professionals to develop comprehensive strategies to enhance self-care among adult patients with hypertension.
