Knowledge Gaps and Controversies on Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in the Assessment of Pulmonary Vascular Disease: An Official Statement of the Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute Exercise and Right Ventricular Function Task Force

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Exercise testing has long been essential for evaluating diagnosis, prognosis, and functional status in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Recent advances have clarified its role in defining reference values and prognostic markers. Nonetheless, substantial knowledge gaps persist regarding the implementation of invasive cardiopulmonary exercise ...

Prognostic Value of Acute Vasoreactivity in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Vasoreactivity, which refers to the reduction of mean pulmonary arterial pressure in response to inhaled vasodilators, is a well‐established metric for prognostication and treatment selection in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. However, the role of vasoreactivity in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is less studied ...

Unrecognized Rupture of Angioplasty Balloon: A Hidden Underlying Reason for the Delayed Occlusion of the Graft

Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
Rupture of angioplasty balloons is a recognized complication of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), occurring in approximately 5-10% of cases. If a rupture occurs, balloon fragments may embolize or cause thrombotic artery occlusion.

Refractory Peripheral Pulmonary Stenosis and Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Associated With a De Novo Loss‐of‐Function Variant in FGD5

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT We report a novel genetic variant in a patient with treatment‐resistant peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis (PPS) and progressive pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). A premature infant was diagnosed with bilateral PPS requiring multiple surgical reconstructions and interventional procedures with refractory proximal stenoses.
