Reuters has had long experience in at least three ways of telling a story: text. photos and video, not to mention
combinations of all three. But there is a fourth, and it is fast becoming a key part of how we bring information and insight
to our readers and customers. Information graphics--and its cousin, data visualization--are fast coming into their own at
Thomson Reuters. They are both a re ection of the growing importance of smart, well-researched and well-designed
graphics in a world increasingly awash in data. In addition, the signi cant strides the graphics team has taken in the past
year to improve its skills, capabilities and infrastructure.
1 Our team of visual journalists--based in Singapore, New York and London--spent much of 2014 upgrading their skills to

create more interactive graphics. 2We collected data from all over the world. 3With steady, day-to-day progress, the
department has transformed itself into a hybrid print and digital shop. 4And the results have been evident in the file. 5We
went from publishing just a handful of interactive graphics in 2013 to more than 100 in 2014.
Among the notable work has been interactive graphics on the U.S. border crisis, World Cup brackets, and Malaysian
Airlines MH370. One of our graphics that tracks the sobering number of journalist deaths worldwide has been re-tweeted
more than 13,000 times.
1 The team has been taking advantage of a tool built to allow reporters and graphics editors to work from a common

spreadsheet. 2This means reporters can update data and edit text inside a graphic by themselves, increasing the number
of graphics we can create and send to customers.
There is always more to be done, of course, but we now have a strong suite of digital tools. Many of which we hope to put
in the hands of more text journalists. And as the team develops new skills, you can expect to see better and more
integrated graphics offerings in many more stories.

Hypertension is a chronic medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated.
Hypertension is also sometimes called high blood pressure. High blood pressure usually does not cause symptoms. Long-
term high blood pressure, however, is a major risk factor for many illnesses. These include coronary artery disease, stroke,
heart failure, atrial brillation, peripheral vascular disease, vision loss, chronic kidney disease, and dementia.
High blood pressure is categorized into two major types. They are primary high blood pressure and secondary high blood
pressure. According to statistics, about 90-95% of cases are primary hypertension. This type is de ned as high blood
pressure due to nonspeci c lifestyle and genetic factors. Lifestyle factors that increase the risk include excess salt in the
diet, excess body weight, smoking, and alcohol use. The remaining 5- 10% of cases are categorized as secondary high
blood pressure. This type of hypertension is de ned as high blood pressure due to an identi able cause, such as chronic
kidney disease, narrowing of the kidney arteries, an endocrine disorder, or the use of birth control pills.
Blood pressure is expressed by two measurements namely the systolic and diastolic pressures. They are the maximum and
minimum pressures respectively. For most adults, normal blood pressure at rest is within the range of 100-130 millimeters
mercury (mmHg) systolic and 60-80 mmHg diastolic. High blood pressure is present when the resting blood pressure is
persistently at or above 130/90 or 140/90 mmHg. Different numbers apply to children. High arterial blood pressure affects
between 16 and 37% of the population globally.
Lifestyle changes and medications can lower blood pressure and decrease the risk of health complications. Lifestyle
changes include weight loss, decreased salt intake, physical exercise, and a healthy diet. If lifestyle changes are not
suf cient then blood pressure medications are used. Up to three medications can control blood pressure in 90% of people.
The treatment of moderately high arterial blood pressure with medications is associated with an improved life
expectancy.

A recent survey reported that Instagram is the worst social media network for mental health and wellbeing. It was
associated with high levels of anxiety, depression, bullying and fear of missing out.
Previous studies have suggested that young people who spend more than two hours a day on social networking sites are
more prone to psychological distress. The report states that seeing friends constantly can promote a 'compare and despair'
attitude.
¹The authors wrote that social media posts can set unrealistic expectations. ²Additionally, the posts create feelings of
inadequacy and low-self esteem. ³One survey respondent wrote that Instagram easily makes girls and women feel as if
their bodies are not good enough. ⁴This is re ected by people adding lter and editing their pictures in order for them to
look 'perfect'.
Other research has found that the more social networks a young adult uses, the more likely he or she is to report
depression and anxiety. Trying to navigate between different norms and friend networks on various platforms could be to
blame. On the other hand, it is also possible that people with poor mental health are drawn to multiple social media
platforms in the rst place.
¹The Royal Society is asking social media companies to make changes to reduce the harmful effects of social media on
children and young adults. ²The report recommends the introduction of a pop-up "heavy usage" warning within these
apps or websites. ³71% of the survey respondents say they would support this suggestion. ⁴Out of ve social networks
included in the survey, YouTube received the highest marks for health and wellbeing and was the only site that received a
net positive scored by respondents. ⁵It also recommends that companies nd a way to highlight photos of people that have
been digitally manipulated. ⁶Lastly it is suggested that the companies offer help to users who could be suffering from
mental health problems.

The older we get, the more likely we are to lapse into a sedentary lifestyle. Recent research reports an estimated 67% of
older adults sitting for more than eight hours per day, whereas only 28% to 34% of adults ages 65 to 74 are physically
active.
A sedentary life can affect our health in ways we may not realize, and the consequences of too much sitting every day can
be adverse. For example, prolonged sitting, like spending hours watching television, increases our chance of developing
venous thrombosis, which potentially leads to fatal blood clots that form in the deep veins of legs. In fact, people who
watched television the most had a 70% greater risk of suffering from venous thrombosis compared with those who never
or seldom watched TV.
On the ip side, squeezing in extra movement during the day can have a big impact. For instance, standing more can help
us lose weight and keep it off. Everyday activities that incorporate more walking also build up muscles, which may help us
live longer. Researchers have found that loss of leg muscle strength and mass is associated with slower walking speeds
among older adults. Slower speeds are linked with lower 10- year survival rate for people after age 75.
One way to combat the health risks of a sedentary lifestyle is to work small bits of exercise into daily routine. It does not
matter if we aren’t sweating or feeling like we are working hard as long as we are still moving our arms and legs,
stimulating our muscles, and working our joints. Exercise doesn't always have to be intense to be effective. We can focus
on adding just 30 minutes of extra activity into our day, three days a week, or we can break it down into smaller
segments, like 10 minutes in the morning, afternoon and evening.

sports can be a solution.
B. Being physically inactive for most of the day has been a lifestyle. Unfortunately, this way of life can harm our

behind the desk throughout the day. While this sounds productive, its dangers to health may be profound.

whenever we can. As a rule of thumb, standing idle is preferred to sustained sitting.
