Is the rule of halves in hypertension valid uniformly across India? A cross-sectional analysis of national family health survey-4 data
CONCLUSION: The rule of halves of India shows that the National Programme for Prevention and Control of Cancer, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Diseases, and Stroke has made relatively good progress with the detection of hypertension and achieving BP control among those on treatment. However, with three-fourth of known hypertensives not availing treatment, more dividends from the detection of hypertension efforts could be realized. The program needs to especially focus on ensuring the treatment for those detected with hypertension.PMID:36149103 | DOI:10.4103/ijph.ijph_2143_21

A cross sectional study to assess tobacco use and its correlates among patients attending non-communicable disease clinics of a Northern Jurisdiction in India
CONCLUSION: Higher tobacco use among the NCD clinic attendees with increasing age predisposes them to develop grave complications.
