About the Journal
Advancing cardiovascular medicine through rigorous research and clinical excellence in hypertension and cardiology.
Journal of Hypertension and Cardiology
The Journal of Hypertension and Cardiology (JHC) is an international, open access, peer-reviewed publication dedicated to advancing cardiovascular science and clinical practice. Our editorial mission centers on publishing high-quality research that informs clinical decision-making, shapes treatment guidelines, and ultimately improves outcomes for patients with hypertension and heart disease.
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, making high-quality research essential for progress. JHC serves as a comprehensive resource for cardiologists, internists, researchers, and healthcare professionals working to address this critical public health challenge.
JHC is committed to advancing cardiovascular medicine by providing a rigorous platform for original research, clinical trials, systematic reviews, and practice-based evidence. We welcome multidisciplinary approaches bridging basic science, clinical medicine, epidemiology, and population health perspectives.
Our editorial team prioritizes research with clear clinical implications and translational potential. We believe that effective cardiovascular research should inform and improve patient care, shaping treatment guidelines and healthcare delivery worldwide.
Our commitment: JHC upholds the highest standards for clinical research reporting, ensuring all published work demonstrates rigorous methodology, appropriate statistical analysis, and transparent presentation of cardiovascular outcomes.
JHC welcomes submissions across the full spectrum of cardiovascular research and clinical practice. We encourage multidisciplinary approaches bridging basic science, clinical medicine, epidemiology, and population health perspectives.
Hypertension Management
Research on blood pressure control, pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions, resistant hypertension, and personalized treatment approaches for diverse patient populations.
Coronary Artery Disease
Studies on atherosclerosis, acute coronary syndromes, revascularization strategies, secondary prevention, and long-term cardiovascular outcomes after intervention.
Heart Failure
Research on heart failure with preserved and reduced ejection fraction, device therapies, advanced heart failure management, and quality of life optimization.
Arrhythmias and Electrophysiology
Investigations of cardiac rhythm disorders, ablation therapies, device implantation, atrial fibrillation management, and sudden cardiac death prevention.
Cardiovascular Imaging
Advances in echocardiography, cardiac MRI, CT angiography, nuclear cardiology, and multimodality imaging for diagnosis and risk stratification.
Prevention and Risk Factors
Studies on cardiovascular risk assessment, lifestyle modification, lipid management, diabetes-cardiovascular connections, and population-level prevention strategies.
JHC employs rigorous single-blind peer review. Each submission receives evaluation from at least two independent cardiovascular experts. Reviewers assess scientific validity, methodological quality, clinical relevance, and translational potential. Authors receive constructive feedback designed to strengthen their work.
All published articles are immediately available under Creative Commons licensing, ensuring vital cardiovascular research reaches everyone who needs it—clinicians in diverse settings, patients seeking evidence-based information, and policymakers developing health strategies.
