Prognostic meaning of right ventricular function and output reserve in patients with systemic sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2022
Background The objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of right ventricular (RV) function at rest and during exercise in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) presenting for a screening for pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Oxygenated hemoglobin as prognostic marker among patients with systemic sclerosis screened for pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Oxygenated hemoglobin (OxyHem) in arterial blood may reflect disease severity in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). The aim of this study was to analyze the predictive value of OxyHem in SSc patients screened for pulmonary hypertension (PH). OxyHem (

Prognostic impact of hypochromic erythrocytes in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2021
Background Iron deficiency affects up to 50% of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) but iron markers such as ferritin and serum iron are confounded by several non-disease related factors like acute inflammation and diet.

Pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2010
Abstract Symptoms of unexplained exertional breathlessness or symptoms out of proportion to coexistent heart or lung disease should alert the clinician to the possibility of pulmonary hypertension, and the condition should be actively sought in patients with known associated conditions, such as scleroderma, hypoxic lung disease, liver ...

Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
The modern era in cardiopulmonary medicine began in the 1940s, when Cournand and Richards pioneered right-heart catheterization. Until that time, no direct measurement of central vascular pressure had been performed in humans. Right-heart catheterization ignited an explosion of insights into function and dysfunction of the pulmonary circulation ...

Pulmonary hypertension

open access: yes, 2011
The fundamental morphologic classification into plexogenic arteriopathy, thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary venous hypertension, and pulmonary hypertension associated with intrinsic lung disease and/or hypoxia, remains similar to the previous edition, but pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is now viewed as a part of pulmonary ...

Impact of targeted pulmonary arterial hypertension therapies in severe pulmonary hypertension in chronic lung diseases

open access: yesERJ Open Research, 2023
Research questions Patients with severe pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic lung disease have a poor prognosis. Targeted pulmonary arterial hypertension therapies might improve exercise capacity and outcome, but there are no guidelines on ...

Right heart size and function significantly correlate in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension – a cross-sectional study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background The objective of this study was to assess, whether right atrial (RA) and ventricular (RV) size is related to RV pump function at rest and during exercise in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
