Pulmonary artery dysfunction in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2017
Background: Unresolved thromboemboli in the pulmonary arteries (PA) is known to cause chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, it remains unknown if vascular dysfunction in pulmonary arteries exists in patients with CTEPH.

Assessing the effectiveness of primary angioplasty compared with thrombolysis and its relationship to time delay: a Bayesian evidence synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Meta-analyses of trials have shown greater benefits from angioplasty than thrombolysis after an acute myocardial infarction, but the time delay in initiating angioplasty needs to be considered.

Haemoptysis and bronchial congestion due to pulmonary vein stenosis after maze procedure

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2019
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare disease that can cause haemoptysis. Acquired PVS is indicated as a complication associated with cardiac catheter intervention; however, the maze procedure has not been reported to induce PVS.
