The caveats in the diagnosis of anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is an infrequent, well described, but important anomaly of the coronary origin. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment of the disease can be life saving. However, there are

Mycophenolate Mofetil Treatment Reduces the Risk of Treatment Escalation Due to Vascular Complications in Limited Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis: Emulation of a Target Trial From the Italian Rheumatology Society SPRING Registry

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Pulmonary artery banding

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1984
Two hundred nine children with congenital heart defects characterized by excessive pulmonary blood flow underwent pulmonary artery banding at The Hospital for Sick Children from January, 1972, through December, 1982. The indications for banding, rather than complete repair, varied with the type of cardiac defect as well as with the year of presentation

Association Between Pulmonary Artery Diameter on Computed Tomography and Pulmonary Artery Pressure in Lung Transplant Recipients [PDF]

open access: yes
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the correlation between pulmonary artery diameter (PAD) measured by computed tomography (CT) and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) measured by right heart catheterization (RHC) in patients undergoing lung ...

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

Branch-to-Total Pulmonary Artery Area Ratio as a Predictor of Flow Limitation in Tetralogy of Fallot: MRA and Phase Contrast MRI Study

open access: yesCurrent Research in MRI
Objective: The severity of branch pulmonary artery stenosis and associated flow restriction can be assessed using catheter angiography and lung perfusion scintigraphy. However, these techniques are time-consuming and have various limitations.

Pulmonary artery pressure via endobronchial ultrasound: A feasibility and safety studyCentral MessagePerspective

open access: yesJTCVS Techniques
Objectives: Pulmonary hypertension significantly influences perioperative outcomes in thoracic surgery. Right heart catheterization, the standard method to assess pulmonary artery pressure, is invasive and time-consuming.

Management of Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia is an extreme form of tetralogy characterized by absence of flow from the right ventricle to the pulmonary arteries.

Multiple P2Y receptors couple to calcium-dependent, chloride channels in smooth muscle cells of the rat pulmonary artery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) and uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) act via P2Y receptors to evoke contraction of rat pulmonary arteries, whilst adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) acts via P2X and P2Y receptors.
