The hypertension data (Wang et al., 2005) included 7 studies comparing the treatment effect of anti-hypertensive treatment versus control on reducing diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in patients with hypertension. Negative estimates indicate the reduction of DBP in the anti-hypertensive treatment group.
