Summary

This study tested whether text messages could help homeless adults with uncontrolled high blood pressure lower their numbers and stay on track with medications and clinic visits. About 120 participants received either standard healthy-living texts or extra texts focused on blood pressure control. After six months, researchers compared blood pressure readings, medication adherence, and appointment attendance between the two groups.
