Fig 2. Impact of self-monitoring of BP on clinic dBP according to level of co-intervention support at 12 months (15 studies).

Change in dBP adjusted for age, sex, baseline clinic BP, and history of diabetes. The trials are grouped into the 4 levels of intervention, and I² and P values are shown for each level of intervention and for the overall analysis. Effect of self-monitoring on clinic dBP at 6 and 18 months are shown in S4 and S7 Figs, respectively. Wakefield’s participants self-monitored for 6 months; follow-up continued to 12 months.
