Using the Global Burden of Disease Study to Assist Development of Nation-Specific Fact Sheets to Promote Prevention and Control of Hypertension and Reduction in Dietary Salt: A Resource From the World Hypertension League

Nongovernmental organizations and individuals can assist by ensuring widespread dissemination of the best available facts and recommended interventions for both health risks. Simple but impactful fact sheets can be useful for informing the public, healthcare professionals, and policy makers.
