Active substance: health literacy-tailored self-management intervention (behavioral)
What this could lead to: If successful, this program could offer a practical, low-cost way for people with low health literacy to better control their blood pressure.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial (170 people) testing a behavioral intervention, not a drug. Results may not apply to other populations or settings.
