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

, 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

Performing Large‐Scale Genetic Analysis in the Bleeding Disorders Community

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inherited bleeding disorders encompass a diverse group of conditions caused by genetic defects affecting coagulation factors, fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, or platelet function. Despite major advances in quantitative and functional laboratory assays, a substantial diagnostic gap remains, particularly in patients with mild or atypical ...

Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]

, 2015
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Real‐World Use of Emicizumab in Patients With Acquired Haemophilia A: An Interim Safety Analysis of a Large‐Scale Post‑Marketing Surveillance Study

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Acquired haemophilia A (AHA) is a rare autoimmune disorder where the development of autoantibodies to factor (F)VIII neutralise its function, leading to bleeding. Emicizumab has been approved for treating AHA in Japan. Aim This post‐marketing study was performed to primarily examine the use and safety of emicizumab, and indirectly

Non-valvular atrial fibrillation and stroke : implications for management [PDF]

, 1995
Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation is more prevalent with increasing age. It is associated with a six-fold excess risk of stroke; and a cumulative lifetime stroke risk of 35%. 15% of ischaemic strokes are directly attributable to it.

Response to pulmonary arterial hypertension drug therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and cardiovascular risk factors. [PDF]

, 2014
The age at diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are increasing. We sought to determine whether the response to drug therapy was influenced by CV risk factors in PAH patients. We studied

Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension: Medical Therapy as a Viable Option in a Limited Resource Environment

Indian Journal of Clinical Cardiology
Pulmonary endarterectomy is the only potentially curable treatment of choice for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, while balloon pulmonary angioplasty has been advocated for peripheral (distal) chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension ...

Comparison of HEMOlysis Markers Among Three Pulsed Field Ablation Systems: HEMO‐PFA Study

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulsed field ablation (PFA) has emerged as a novel non‐thermal modality for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. While hemolysis is a known complication of PFA, comparative data among different systems remain limited. Methods We prospectively enrolled 150 consecutive AF patients undergoing ablation with one of three PFA systems ...
