Characterization of Connective Tissue Disease-Associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension From REVEAL: Identifying Systemic Sclerosis as a Unique Phenotype

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Registry to Evaluate Early and Long-term Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Disease Management (REVEAL) to analyze the clinical features of patients with connective tissue disease-associated PAH (CTD-APAH).
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin resistance in pulmonary arterial hypertension

TL;DR: The presence of IR and a higher NYHA class was associated with poorer 6-months event-free survival and insulin resistance appears to be a novel risk factor or disease modifier that might impact on survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blocking macrophage leukotriene b4 prevents endothelial injury and reverses pulmonary hypertension.

TL;DR: The authors found that damping down excess LTB4 by inhibiting its biosynthesis could reverse disease: in treated animals, cardiac function improved and obstructed arterioles opened, and the authors uncovered a possible role for macrophage-derived LTB 4 in PH pathogenesis and identify a pathway that may be amenable to therapeutic targeting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management strategies for patients with pulmonary hypertension in the intensive care unit

TL;DR: Treatment of pulmonary hypertension resulting from critical illness or chronic lung diseases should address the primary cause of hemodynamic deterioration, and pulmonary vasodilators usually are not necessary.
