Efficacy and cost-effectiveness of digital health interventions in improving hypertensive outcomes among patients with uncontrolled hypertension: A systematic review.
Review in International journal of nursing sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Objectives: This systematic review aimed to identify effective and cost-effective digital health interventions to improve self-management behaviors, blood pressure control, and cardiovascular risk reduction. Methods: A search for randomized and non-randomized control trials of digital health interventions among patients with uncontrolled hypertension was conducted from the databases of Embase, PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Web of Science, PsycINFO, Thai Journal Online (ThaiJO), the Faculty of Nursing Mahidol University (FON-MU) Nursing Research Database, and gray literature. After conducting the literature screening, the authors completed data extraction, and the risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute randomized controlled trial checklist and the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal checklist for quasi-experimental studies. Results: The study included 22 articles, comprising 30 to 4,118 patients with uncontrolled hypertension. This review classified and summarized the components of digital health interventions and their effects on hypertensive outcomes. It was found that the key elements of digital health interventions include health education, reminders, self-monitoring, feedback and consultation, and instrumental support. Moreover, approximately 81.81 % ( Conclusion: Based on the available literature, digital health interventions have been shown to effectively enhance behavioral, clinical, and economic outcomes for individuals with uncontrolled hypertension. Moreover, the combination of digital health interventions and healthcare providers' interventions can potentially help patients with uncontrolled hypertension improve adherence to self-management when compared to stand-alone digital health interventions. Digital health interventions to support self-management interventions should be developed for patients by healthcare providers.
