Call for papers: Cardiovascular issues in underrepresented populations

We are particularly interested in manuscripts reporting novel findings from currently underrepresented populations, with an emphasis on low- and middle-income countries. Relevant studies from high income countries, for instance focusing on ethnic differences and the elderly, may also be considered.

Opinion: The role of implementation science in health

Accumulation of scientific knowledge in healthcare improvement has been slow, and a number of problems and approaches make implementing strategies difficult. In an opinion article, the authors suggest focusing on the interests of patients, and that research programs on implementation in healthcare are established.
