Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that regular running lowers resting blood pressure in adults?

Yes. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials concludes that running regularly lowers resting blood pressure in adults, and a separate meta-analysis of aerobic exercise (a broader category that includes running) reports significant reductions in resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
