Pulmonary Hypertension Caused by Pulmonary Venous Hypertension [PDF]
Pulmonary Circulation, 2014 The effect of pulmonary venous hypertension (PVH) on the pulmonary circulation is extraordinarily variable, ranging from no impact on pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) to a marked increase. The reasons for this are unknown. Both acutely reversible pulmonary vasoconstriction and pathological remodeling (especially medial hypertrophy and intimal ...

Pilot study of losartan for pulmonary hypertension in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: Morbidity in COPD results from a combination of factors including hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension, in part due to pulmonary vascular remodelling. Animal studies suggest a role of angiotensin II and acute studies in man concur.

Transforming growth factor-beta receptor mutations and pulmonary arterial hypertension in childhood [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a potentially fatal vasculopathy that can develop at any age. Adult-onset disease has previously been associated with mutations in BMPR2 and ALK-1.

Non-Invasive Pulmonary Artery Wave Intensity Analysis in Pulmonary Hypertension. [PDF]
, 2015 Pulmonary wave reflections are a potential hemodynamic biomarker for pulmonary hypertension (PH) and can be analyzed using wave intensity analysis (WIA). In this study we used pulmonary vessel area and flow obtained using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)

Pulmonary Medicine, 2012 Pulmonary hypertension (PH), defined as elevated pulmonary artery pressure, is common in the general population and associated with increased mortality. Accordingly, physicians commonly encounter patients with dyspnea, exercise intolerance, and/or right heart failure who have elevated pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) on echocardiography ...

Metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginines is regulated in the lung developmentally and with pulmonary hypertension induced by hypobaric hypoxia [PDF]
, 2003 Background— Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important part in lowering pulmonary vascular resistance after birth, and in persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), NO-mediated dilation is dysfunctional.

Current Problems in Cardiology, 2004 Pulmonary hypertension, in its simplest sense, is elevation of the pulmonary artery pressure above normal. A multitude of diseases may increase the pulmonary artery pressure and result in right ventricular dysfunction. The treatments of pulmonary hypertension are as varied as its causes.
