A common form of biased reporting is to avoid quoting evidence that contradicts the authors' interpretation of scientific data. Against this background the recommendations by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies of USA (IOM) regarding a population-based policy of salt restriction have been reviewed. It is suggested that the recommendations may not be valid since some important evidence has not been included in the IOM analysis.
