An updated network meta-analysis of non-pharmacological interventions for primary hypertension in adults: insights from recent studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Primary hypertension significantly impacts global cardiovascular health, contributing to increased mortality rates and posing a substantial public health challenge. Recognizing the growing evidence supporting non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs) for controlling primary hypertension, our study employs Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) to comprehensively assess their efficacy.

Methods

This review updates a prior systematic review by searching for original literature on NPIs for primary hypertension from 2013 to 2024.
