Inhaled pulmonary vasodilators: a narrative review [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2021
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe disease that affects people of all ages. It can occur as an idiopathic disorder at birth or as part of a variety of cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders. Inhaled pulmonary vasodilators (IPV) can reduce pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and improve RV function with minimal systemic effects.

Early pulmonary response is critical for extra-pulmonary carbon nanoparticle mediated effects: comparison of inhalation versus intra-arterial infusion exposures in mice

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2017
Background The death toll associated with inhaled ambient particulate matter (PM) is attributed mainly to cardio-vascular rather than pulmonary effects. However, it is unclear whether the key event for cardiovascular impairment is particle translocation ...
