It has been largely acknowledged that pulmonary vascular disease (PVD) and congenital heart disease (CHD) are closely related. This link has been established for more than a century now, and is based on careful observations and hard scientific work of many outstanding investigators. Much of the current knowledge on the pathobiology of pulmonary hypertension (the clinical and hemodynamic express...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating disease characterized by progressive elevation of pulmonary arterial pressure and vascular resistance due to pulmonary vasoconstriction and vessel remodeling as well as inflammation. Rho-kinases (ROCKs) are one of the best-described effectors of the small G-protein RhoA, and ROCKs are involved in a variety of cellular functions including mu...

Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) associated with connective tissue diseases (CTD) (CTD-PAH) remains a difficult challenge in clinical practice. We aimed to evaluate the effects of targeted vasodilators patients severe CTD-PAH. Methods The data 53 CTD-PAH hospitalized at Department Rheumatology and Immunology, Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital Nanjing University Medical School, were...

UNLABELLED Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a hemodynamic and pathophysiologic condition, defined as a mean pulmonary arterial pressure exceeding 25 mmHg at rest. According to the recent classifications, it is grouped into pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), heart-related, lung-related, thromboembolic, and miscellaneous PH. In the past two decades, tremendous advances have occurred in the fiel...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a multifactorial life-threatening disease, characterized by high pulmonary artery pressure, with an ultimate right heart failure. Without treatment, death occurs within 3 years of diagnosis. PAH is characterized by abnormal remodelling of small, peripheral resistance vessels in the lung involving proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle, end...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a multi-factorial condition and the underlying pulmonary vascular disease is shaped by the combined action of genetic, epigenetic and immune-related factors. Whether and how gender, obesity and the metabolic syndrome modify PAH and associated right heart failure is under intense investigation. Estrogens may enhance the process of pulmonary angioprolifera...

Exogenous substances such as the appetite suppressant fenfluramine are known to be causally related to the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). In these cases, the clinical course as well as the pulmonary vascular disease pathologically is indistinguishable from idiopathic PAH. Other exogenous substances, such as amphetamines, cocaine, and meta-amphetamines, have been considere...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a serious and often fatal disease. It is a panvasculopathy of the pulmonary microcirculation characterized by vasoconstriction and arterial obstruction due to vascular proliferation and remodeling and ultimately right ventricular failure. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a universal finding in pulmonary vascular cells of patients with PAH, and is mechanistic...

Portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) is defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) complicated by portal hypertension, with or without advanced hepatic disease. Significant percentage of patients with cirrhotic liver disease has high cardiac output and subsequently elevated pulmonary arterial pressures (PAP). However, patients with POPH develop a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular r...
