I am delighted to introduce Journal of Hypertension: Open Access (JHOA) of Hilaris Publishing Group, one of the renowned journal in the area of clinical & medical sciences.

Each issue of the journal will contain Research Papers, will be more traditional in form and will demonstrate a sound theoretical and methodological underpinning and a clear contribution to knowledge in the field of Hypertension.
