Hidden pulmonary arteries in tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary artery pressure in patients operated with a pulmonary artery [PDF]
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021Introduction The absence of a pulmonary artery is a rare congenital anomaly that occurs isolated or with other congenital cardiac disorders, particularly tetralogy of Fallot (TOF); meanwhile, a hidden pulmonary artery might exist and originate from a ...

Pulmonary Artery Denervation for Pulmonary Artery Hypertension.
JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2015While the seminal advance in the treatment of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) over the past 2 decades has been pharmacological targeting of dysfunctional endothelium-derived pathways that contribute to the characteristic vascular remodeling of this condition irrespective of etiology [(1)][1],

Elevated gamma glutamyl transferase levels are associated with the location of acute pulmonary embolism. Cross-sectional evaluation in hospital setting [PDF]
São Paulo Medical Journal, 2015CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The location of embolism is associated with clinical findings and disease severity in cases of acute pulmonary embolism. The level of gamma-glutamyl transferase increases under oxidative stress-related conditions.

Dilatation of the Pulmonary Artery in Pulmonary Stenosis [PDF]
Circulation, 1956Dilatation of the pulmonary artery occurs frequently in cases of valvular pulmonary stenosis and is often called "poststenotic." We determined the diameter of the pulmonary artery angiocardiographically and compared this with the data obtained by heart catheterization in cases of pulmonary stenosis and of idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery ...

Pulmonary artery denervation for pulmonary arterial hypertension
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021Pulmonary 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.
