Central versus Peripheral CTEPH—Clinical and Hemodynamic Specifications
Background and Objectives: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a chronic progressive disease, resulting from persistent arterial obstruction combined with small-vessel remodeling.

ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction increase mortality in multivessel pediatric pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS). Pulmonary vasodilator use is limited in PVS due to the perceived risk of pulmonary edema. We aimed to describe our experience with pulmonary vasodilators in PVS and to assess changes in RV function and ...

The correlation between hemodynamics and degree of pulmonary vascular obstruction (PVO) is known to be poor in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), which makes the selection of patients eligible for pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA ...

Iron Homeostasis at High Altitude in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension
ABSTRACT Iron deficiency aggravates hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, exacerbating the increase of pulmonary arterial pressure at high altitude (HA). This may be especially relevant for patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) travelling to HA, who moreover have a high prevalence of iron deficiency. Currently, no data is available on iron parameters

Activin Signaling Inhibitors in Pulmonary Hypertension: A State‐of‐the‐Art Review
ABSTRACT Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease of abnormal pulmonary vascular remodeling and vascular obliteration that results in right heart failure and death. PAH pathogenesis is strongly associated with mutations of the Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF‐β) superfamily signaling pathway, which has previously been challenging to ...

D-dimer to NT-proBNP ratio in acute pulmonary embolism patients stratifies risk of CTEPH
There are ongoing efforts to identify patients at risk of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) during acute pulmonary embolism (APE). Lower D-dimer levels and right heart overload at APE diagnosis were reported to predict CTEPH.

THE ROLE OF ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY IN ASSESSMENT OF HEART REMODELING IN PATIENTS WITH CTEPH [PDF]
SUMMERY The study included 40 patients with CTEPH of different severity. All patients underwent 2D and 3D echocardiography to assess structure and function of right and left heart chambers, ventricular interaction, and ventricular-vascular coupling.
