Metformin reverses development of pulmonary hypertension via aromatase inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Females are more susceptible to pulmonary arterial hypertension than males, although the reasons remain unclear. The hypoglycemic drug, metformin, is reported to have multiple actions, including the inhibition of aromatase and stimulation of AMP ...

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension following long-term peripherally inserted central venous catheter use

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2019
A 36-year-old woman presented with recurrent pulmonary emboli (PE) despite oral anticoagulation. She was a type I diabetic with severe gastroparesis requiring insertion of multiple long-term peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) over a 10-year ...

Non-invasive assessment of pulmonary vascular resistance in pulmonary hypertension: Current knowledge and future direction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pulmonary Hypertension (PHT) is relatively common, dangerous and under-recognised. Pulmonary hypertension is not a diagnosis in itself; it is caused by a number of differing diseases each with different treatments and prognoses.

Tetrahydrobiopterin analogues with NO-dependent pulmonary vasodilator properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Reduced NO levels due to the deficiency of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) contribute to impaired vasodilation in pulmonary hypertension Due to the chemically unstable nature of BH4 it was hypothesised that oxidatively stable analogues of BR, would be able to ...

Prospective clinical assessment of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension switched from bosentan to macitentan (POTENT)

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2022
Even though pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) remains an incurable disease, the combination of PAH‐specific therapies allowed treatment strategies to evolve from symptom‐based ones to others that aim to move patients to low‐risk conditions ...
