Is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Effective for People with Hypertension? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 30 Years of Evidence
Overview
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) for individuals with hypertension or pre-hypertension by synthesizing data from six randomized controlled trials. The authors examine changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, as well as anxiety, depression, and perceived stress levels. The resource is primarily intended for researchers and clinicians interested in evidence-based interventions for cardiovascular risk factors.
