The efficacy of resistance training for the management of hypertension: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Postepy w kardiologii interwencyjnej = Advances in interventional cardiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introoduction: Hypertension is a common cardiovascular disease, which can lead to severe outcomes without sufficient treatment. Lifestyle modification and exercise have been recommended in the management of hypertension. Aim: In this meta-analysis, we aimed to determine to what extent resistance training can alter blood pressure and identify factors modulating the potential benefits of resistance training. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception to December 18, 2024, to identify randomized controlled trials comparing the effect of resistance exercise with control intervention on systolic and diastolic blood pressure. A random-effects model (DerSimonian-Laird) was employed to pool data. Results: Fourteen randomized controlled trials with 676 patients with hypertension were included in this meta-analysis. We found that compared to the control intervention, resistance training significantly decreased both systolic blood pressure (weighted mean difference (WMD) -8.61 mm Hg, 95% confidence interval (CI) (-13.95, -3.27), Conclusions: These findings support the beneficial effects of resistance training for the management of hypertension, particularly in a selected subgroup of patients.
