Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) Panel

ثبت نشده
چکیده

The PAH Panel provides a high quality read-out of all genes with well-established association to pulmonary arterial hypertension. Our OS-SeqTM technology provides high coverage clinical grade sequencing and enables reliable diagnostics for PAH patients with significantly lower costs and faster turnaround time (basic service TAT 21 days and Express service TAT 7-10 days). The PAH Panel has undergone rigorous validation process during its evolution at Blueprint Genetics. Our unique sequencing technology combined with in-house built bioinformatics pipeline with pulmonary arterial hypertension mutation and knowledge databases, together with our experienced team of geneticists and clinicians, forms the most efficient PAH diagnostics service in the market. Our variant classification schemes and clinical interpretation processes have been developed and validated with thousands of patients with hereditary cardiovascular disease. Blueprint Genetics publically shares all classified variants identified in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients to improve future diagnostics (ClinVar; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/). Our mission is to improve the quality of diagnostics and management of PAH patients and their families.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Thalassemia Major Patients of Ilam, 2014

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disease with high morbidity and mortality rates. Research has shown that PAH has a prevalence rate of 10-79% in thalassemia major patients. This cross-sectional study was carried out in 2014 to determine the prevalence and risk factors of PAH in all thalassemia major patients of over 18 years of age in Ilam, Iran. A cardiologist measured sy...

The Relationship between Serum Pro‐Brain Natriuretic Peptide (Pro‐BNP) Levels and Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) in Patients with Limited Scleroderma

Introduction: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a late progressive sclerodermarelated complication, which can lead to right heart failure and cor pulmonale. Given that cardiac catheterization is a diagnostic method of choice for PAH, and considering the high risks of this method, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between serum Pro‐Brain natriuretic peptide (Pro‐B...

Chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia attenuates monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension via modulating inflammation and suppressing NF-κB /p38 pathway

Objective(s): Inflammation is involved in various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Although the pathophysiology of PAH remains uncertain, NF-κB and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) has been reportedto be associated with many inflammatory mediators of PAH. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (CIHH) on pulmonary inflammat...

The Importance of Electrocardiography in Pediatric Patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Follow- up

Background: Right Ventricular (RV) hypertrophy is an adaptive response to chronic RV pressure overload in patients with pulmonary hypertension. We investigated the relationships between RV hypertrophy indicators, including electrocardiography, the percentage oxygen saturation (SaO2%), body mass index (BMI), and blood uric acid levels in patients with...

Chronic hypoxia aggravates monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension: a rodent relevant model to the human severe form of the disease

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe form of pulmonary hypertension that combines multiple alterations of pulmonary arteries, including, in particular, thrombotic and plexiform lesions. Multiple-pathological-insult animal models, developed to more closely mimic this human severe PAH form, often require complex and/or long experimental procedures while not displaying the entire pane...
