Pulmonary arterial hypertension
La Presse Médicale, 2023Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and progressive disease characterised by remodelling of the pulmonary arteries and progressive narrowing of the pulmonary vasculature. This leads to a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary arterial pressure and, if left untreated, to right ventricular failure and death.

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Heart Failure Clinics, 2018This article provides an overview of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), beginning with the initial pathologic recognition of pulmonary hypertension more than 100 years ago and progressing to the current diagnostic categorization of PAH. It reviews the epidemiology, pathophysiology, genetics, and modern treatment of PAH.

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Current Vascular Pharmacology, 2010The last 10 years have seen significant advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology and treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This has included new insights into the genetics, cell-signalling pathways and pathological changes seen in the small pulmonary arteries as well as the introduction of new treatments which have improved ...

Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2020Pulmonary hypertension (PH), the syndrome of increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality for affected children and is associated with a variety of potential underlying causes. Several pulmonary arterial hypertension-targeted therapies have become available to reduce pulmonary artery pressure and ...

Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Current Hypertension Reports, 2013Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can cause morbidity and mortality in children. Although adult and pediatric PAH share many similarities, many differences have been found in children. Thus, a new classification for pediatric pulmonary hypertensive vascular disease has been proposed. Both child and adult gene mutation carriers with PAH tend to have

Pulmonary arterial hypertension in women
Revue des Maladies Respiratoires, 2010Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare condition characterized by sustained elevation in pulmonary arterial resistance leading to right heart failure.PAH afflicts predominantly women. Echocardiography is the initial investigation of choice for non-invasive detection of PAH but right-heart catheterization is necessary to confirm the diagnosis ...

Echocardiography in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Current Cardiology Reports, 2019Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating disease which can result in right heart (RH) failure and death. Herein, we discuss the current clinical applications of echocardiography in PAH.Advanced echocardiographic techniques (strain, strain rate, 2D-speckle tracking strain, and three-dimensional echocardiography) may reveal in the near ...
