Evidence-Based Chinese Medicine for Hypertension
Open accessAbstract
Hypertension is an important worldwide public -health challenge with high mortality and disability. Due to the limitations and concerns with current available hypertension treatments, many hypertensive patients, especially in Asia, have turned to Chinese medicine (CM). Although hypertension is not a CM term, physicians who practice CM in China attempt to treat the disease using CM principles. A variety of approaches for treating hypertension have been taken in CM. For seeking the best evidence of CM in making decisions for hypertensive patients, a number of clinical studies have been conducted in China, which has paved the evidence-based way. After literature searching and analyzing, it appeared that CM was effective for hypertension in clinical use, such as Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, qigong, and Tai Chi. However, due to the poor quality of primary studies, clinical evidence is still weak. The potential benefits and safety of CM for hypertension still need to be confirmed in the future with well-designed RCTs of more persuasive primary endpoints and high-quality SRs. Evidence-based Chinese medicine for hypertension still has a long way to go.

Large proportions of hypertensive patients use complementary, alternative or traditional medicines in regions such as Africa and China.
“Large proportions of hypertensive patients use complementary, alternative or traditional medicines (in regions such as Africa and China) 61,62”
From 2020 International Society of Hypertension Global Hypertension Practice Guidelines (2020) · cites this paper as [61]
The Introduction says Chinese medicine is commonly used to treat hypertension in China and that a certain proportion of people, especially in Asia, use complementary and alternative medicine. It gives no proportion for hypertensive patients and does not describe such use in Africa, so it does not support the full regional and magnitude claim. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
