HTNpedia: A Knowledge Base for Hypertension Research

Background: Hypertension is notably a serious public health concern due to its high prevalence and strong association with cardiovascular disease and renal failure. It is reported to be the fourth leading disease that leads to death worldwide. Objectives: Currently, there is no active operational knowledge base or database for hypertension or cardiovascular illness. Methods: The primary data source was retrieved from the research outputs obtained from our laboratory team working on hypertension research. We have presented a preliminary dataset and external links to the public repository for detailed analysis to readers. Results: As a result, HTNpedia was created to provide information regarding hypertension-related proteins and genes. Conclusion: The complete webpage is accessible via www.mkarthikeyan.bioinfoau.org/HTNpedia.
