Salt And Hypertension Impact Factor

"Despite devastating evidence coupling increased salt intake to hypertension, the relation is still disputed in some circles. Viewing the introduction of salt to human regime on an evolutionary time scale would help us better understand the role of salt in hypertension. Humans and related species emerge in a salt-free environment over millions of years with intense evolutionary burden for the selection of salt conserving genes. The recorded antiquity confirms how rare and inaccessible salt has been until recently. Plunge the species that has exquisitely adapted to very low salt intake into salt surfeit conditions represents evolutionary mismatch with catastrophic health consequences. World Health Organization (WHO) and many governments have now taken response to reduce dietary intake of salt in an effort to reduce the incidence of hypertension and the associated cardiovascular morbidity and fatality." The impact factor of journal provides quantitative assessment tool for grading, evaluating, catalogue and comparing journals of similar kind. It echo the average number of citations to recent articles published in science and social science journals in a particular year or period, and is frequently used as a proxy for the relative consequence of a journal within its field.
