Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

Sex and other predictors of mortality in long-term follow-up of patients with cardiovascular disease and COVID-19: a single-center retrospective study

open access: yesScientific Reports
Male sex is a well-known predictor of short-term prognosis in patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Data, however, on long-term outcomes are scarce. We aimed to assess the differences in mortality between sexes and find other important predictors

The Treatment of Arterial Hypertension.

open access: yesCurrent health sciences journal, 2019
Arterial hypertension is the leading cause of death worldwide and is one of the most important public health problems. Arterial hypertension is a major cardiovascular risk factor with an increasing incidence. In this paper we set out to analyze a group of 3050 patients hospitalized between January 2013 and December 2017 in terms of drug therapy.
