In his report of March 1977 to the President of the United States,1 Dr Robert Levy, director of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, pointed out that cardiovascular diseases account for more than half of the deaths and approximately one third of the economic costs of all diseases in the United States. Hypertension is a major contributing factor in these cases, and Levy estimated that at least 27 million people in the United States suffer from it, but many do not know they have it. Thus, hypertension is a common and important disorder in the United States. Crucial to a discussion of the problems of hypertension are the answers to such questions as: what constitutes hypertension in the adult or the child; conversely, what are "healthy" blood pressures for both groups; when does hypertension start; and what are the causes of hypertension?

<p>In August 2016, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) released its Strategic Vision for charting a course for research over the next decade. This vision was the culmination of an unprecedented process that engaged diverse stakeholders from across the United States and around the globe. The process resulted in four mission-oriented goals and eight strategic objectives that provide an overall framework for advancing research in heart, lung, and blood diseases and sleep disorders. In this perspective, we address opportunities that NHLBI has identified to advance late-stage (T4) translation research, implementation science, health inequities research, global health research, and related research workforce development. Additionally, we highlight the importance of continued active engagement of the clinical and public health research community and the strategic, transdisciplinary, cross-sector partnerships necessary for advancing research priorities to maximize the population-level outcomes and health impact of scientific discoveries.</p><p><em>Ethn Dis. </em>2017;27(4):367-370; doi:10.18865/ed.27.4.367. </p>
