STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced that the Journal of the American Society of Hypertension (JASH) has been selected for inclusion in MEDLINE. MEDLINE is the premier bibliographic database of the US National Library of Medicine (NLM), containing over 15 million journal article citations, with a concentration on biomedicine.
As the official journal of the American Society of Hypertension (ASH), the peer-reviewed JASH is circulated to the Society's more than 2,000 active members, as well as other subscribers and libraries. JASH publishes peer-reviewed articles on the topics of basic, applied, and translational research on blood pressure, hypertension, and related cardiovascular disorders and factors. The journal seeks to provide the tools physicians need to solve everyday problems, while also offering powerful food for thought on the larger issues evolving within the specialty.
The MEDLINE selection process is managed by an advisory committee, the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee, composed of authorities knowledgeable in biomedicine, who recommend only select journals that the NLM should index. MEDLINE contains bibliographic citations and author abstracts from more than 5,000 biomedical journals published in the US and 80 other countries. Indexing of JASH will include all issues published since its inception in 2007.
