Hypertension is much more common than diabetes. It is vastly under diagnosed and poorly treated in India/South-Asia. There are excellent therapeutic options to treat hypertension but the available resources are not fully utilized by doctors therefore neglecting this disorder. The journal will hereby promote the significance of hypertension and the urgent need to bring it under control. The medical community should be educated on hypertension evaluation, diagnosis, workup and management simultaneously bringing up the literature, research, guidelines and scientific advances related to hypertension and its disorders. We are hereby starting a high-quality journal dedicated solely to hypertension and thus promoting the awareness, evaluation and effective management in India/South-Asia. Dr C Venkata S Ram is a world authority on hypertension with lifelong work (research, clinical and publications).</p> Indian Society of Hypertension en-US Hypertension Journal 2454-5996 <p>All open access articles published in the journal are distributed under the terms of the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license (Creative Commons Attribution-Non-commercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License) which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, for non-commercial purposes, provided the original work is properly cited and distributed under the same license (ShareAlike).
