Call for Papers
JHC welcomes evidence-led submissions that fit its hypertension and cardiovascular scope. This call does not announce a deadline, special issue, or publication-speed promise.
Researchers, clinicians, and multidisciplinary teams can use the scope and author guidance to decide whether a manuscript is ready for consideration.
Research JHC is open to consider
The invitation follows JHC’s current journal scope rather than a generic call or a time-limited campaign.
Hypertension and vascular health
Blood-pressure research, hypertension management, vascular medicine and vascular disease, and cerebrovascular risk or stroke prevention.
Heart disease and rhythm
Coronary artery disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, valvular disease, rheumatic heart disease, and congenital disease.
Prevention and cardiometabolic risk
Cardiovascular prevention, risk factors, cardiometabolic research, and population or public-health perspectives with a cardiovascular question.
Diagnostics and translation
Imaging, diagnostics, molecular and translational cardiovascular research, and evidence that clarifies clinical or biological relevance.
Who should submit
JHC is relevant to authors whose work contributes a clear cardiovascular question and evidence base.
- Clinicians and clinical researchers reporting cardiovascular evidence.
- Researchers in epidemiology, prevention, vascular biology, diagnostics, or translational medicine.
- Multidisciplinary teams whose manuscript makes the hypertension or cardiovascular relevance explicit.
Check fit before submission
A short check before preparation prevents a mismatch between the study and the journal.
Scope
