Two digital reference databases, Google Scholar and Research Gate were used for eligible studies. Keywords to obtain the eligible studies were “apium”, “hypertension”, “celery”, and “blood pressure” with the period of publication from 2011–2021. Inclusion criteria included full text articles in Indonesian language or English published in Indonesian indexed journal called Sinta (S1–4) or Scopus indexed journal through the Scimago website (Q1-Q4), and experimental study in subjects with hypertension by celery administration.
