Nitric Oxide in Experimental Pulmonary Embolism [PDF]

, 2010
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important modulator of the pulmonary circulation both at basal state and in pulmonary hypertension. Low levels of NO are detectable in exhaled gas which is believed to mirror pulmonary NO formation and elimination.
