Application of [18F]FLT‐PET in pulmonary arterial hypertension: a clinical study in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients and unaffected bone morphogenetic protein receptor type 2 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by vascular cell proliferation leading to pulmonary vascular remodelling and ultimately right heart failure. Previous data indicated that 3′‐deoxy‐3′‐[18F]‐fluorothymidine

Therapeutic efficacy of TBC3711 in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Endothelin-1 signalling plays an important role in pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. Although different endothelin-A receptor antagonists are developed, a novel therapeutic option to cure the disease is still needed.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2013
Abstract Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a chronic and progressive disease leading to right heart failure and ultimately death if untreated. The first classification of PH was proposed in 1973. In 2008, the fourth World Symposium on PH held in Dana Point (California, USA) revised previous classifications.

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

open access: yesPulmonary 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

Endothelial platelet-derived growth factor-mediated activation of smooth muscle platelet-derived growth factor receptors in pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Platelet-derived growth factor is one of the major growth factors found in human and mammalian serum and tissues. Abnormal activation of platelet-derived growth factor signaling pathway through platelet-derived growth factor receptors may contribute to ...

Care of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic presents many unique challenges when caring for patients with pulmonary hypertension. The COVID-19 pandemic has altered routine standard of care practice and the acute management particularly for those patients with pulmonary ...

Pulmonary artery denervation for pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension remains a progressive, life-limiting disease despite optimal medical therapy. Pulmonary artery denervation has arisen as a novel intervention in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension, and other forms of pulmonary hypertension, with the aim of reducing the sympathetic activity of the pulmonary circulation.

High geographic prevalence of pulmonary artery hypertension: associations with ethnicity, drug use, and altitude

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
While estimates of pulmonary arterial hypertension incidence and prevalence commonly range from 1–3/million and 15–25/million, respectively, clinical experience at our institution suggested much higher rates.

Clinical implications of partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection: a rare cause of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Isolated partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is an uncommon congenital heart anomaly that is sporadically associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension in the adult population.

Clinical application of pulmonary vascular resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a type of malignant pulmonary vascular disease, which is mainly caused by the increase of pulmonary vascular resistance due to the pathological changes of the pulmonary arteriole itself, which eventually leads to right ...
