Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisData analysis was performed using a random-effects model, and the risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool.1Szikora Z (2025)Hawthorn (<i>Crataegus</i> spp.) Clinically Significantly Reduces Blood Pressure in Hypertension: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials.
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisResults : Hawthorn statistically significantly decreased SBP (MD: -6.65 mmHg; 95% CI [-11.72; 1.59]) and non-significantly reduced DBP (MD: -7.19 mmHg; 95% CI [-15.17; 0.79]) after 2-6 months of treatment.1Szikora Z (2025)Hawthorn (<i>Crataegus</i> spp.) Clinically Significantly Reduces Blood Pressure in Hypertension: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials.
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisBackground/Objectives : Hypertension affects over 1.3 billion people globally, and inadequate therapy is reported in 80% of cases.1Szikora Z (2025)Hawthorn (<i>Crataegus</i> spp.) Clinically Significantly Reduces Blood Pressure in Hypertension: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials.
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisPatients increasingly turn to complementary therapies, including hawthorn ( Crataegus spp.), a traditional remedy for cardiovascular diseases.1Szikora Z (2025)Hawthorn (<i>Crataegus</i> spp.) Clinically Significantly Reduces Blood Pressure in Hypertension: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials.
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisEating properly selected foods can not only support daily bodily functions but also reduce the risk of free radical-related diseases, which are largely related to oxidative stress.4Kępińska-Pacelik Jagoda (2026)Hawthorn ( Crataegus monogyna Jacq.): A Review of Therapeutic Potential and Applications
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisHawthorn berries are rich in polyphenols, flavonoids, and other compounds with antioxidant properties, making them an attractive raw material for the development of functional food products that support the elimination of reactive oxygen species and reduce the risk of free radical-related diseases [,,].4Kępińska-Pacelik Jagoda (2026)Hawthorn ( Crataegus monogyna Jacq.): A Review of Therapeutic Potential and Applications
Hawthorn Blood Pressure Meta-AnalysisA clear advantage of alcoholic extracts over aqueous extracts was observed—DPPH activity increased 2.3-fold, and ABTS activity increased 2.5-fold.4Kępińska-Pacelik Jagoda (2026)Hawthorn ( Crataegus monogyna Jacq.): A Review of Therapeutic Potential and Applications
