Effect of riociguat on pulmonary arterial compliance in the PATENT and CHEST studies

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020
Pulmonary arterial compliance is a measure of the pulsatile afterload of the right ventricle. Lower pulmonary arterial compliance is associated with reduced right ventricular function and worse prognosis in pulmonary hypertension. The effect of pulmonary

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is substantially more prevalent than is generally recognized. Most patients affected with this disorder are severely symptomatic, but in the early stages, the diagnosis may be hard to make. Despite an estimated incidence of 2500 to 25,000 cases annually in the United States alone, these patients continue to

Cardiac geometry, as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance, can differentiate subtypes of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary vascular disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundVentricular septal flattening reflects RV pressure overload in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Eccentricity index (EI) and pulmonary artery distensibility (PAD) correlate with pulmonary artery pressure.
