It is unclear whether body size is linked to clinical and hemodynamic characteristics in PAH. In turn, researchers evaluated the relationship between body mass index, exercise capacity, and hemodynamics...
Current guidelines do not provide definitive recommendations for the use of oral prostacyclin pathway agents among patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. In turn, an expert panel developed consensus...
It is unclear whether improving respiratory muscle function can increase exercise capacity among patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. In turn, researchers evaluated the effects of inspiratory...
Previous studies have demonstrated that triple upfront combination therapy is an effective treatment for patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. But what is the therapy’s impact on right...
Little is known about the racial/ethnic differences among patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. Therefore, the researchers investigated these differences as well as how the effects of ancestry...
Over the course of the OPTIMA trial, researchers evaluated the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of macitentan-tadalafil combination therapy among treatment-naïve adults who were newly diagnosed with...
