Journal ArticleDOI

New formula for predicting mean pulmonary artery pressure using systolic pulmonary artery pressure.

TL;DR: In resting humans, MPAP can be accurately predicted from SPAP over a wide pressure range, and a new formula proposed may help to refine the threshold pressure values used in the diagnosis of PH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Haemodynamic evaluation of pulmonary hypertension

TL;DR: Pulmonary hypertension is characterised by the chronic elevation of pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) leading to right ventricular enlargement and hypertrophy, which is associated with poor prognosis and right heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pulmonary artery pulse pressure and wave reflection in chronic pulmonary thromboembolism and primary pulmonary hypertension

TL;DR: CPTE and PPH with severe pulmonary hypertension had similar PA pulse pressure, and wave reflection is elevated in both groups, and CPTE had increased and anticipated wave reflection as compared with PPH, thus suggesting differences in the pulsatile component of right ventricular afterload.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of chronic growth hormone hypersecretion on intrinsic contractility, energetics, isomyosin pattern, and myosin adenosine triphosphatase activity of rat left ventricle.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that chronic GH hypersecretion in the rat leads to a unique pattern of myocardial adaptation which allows the muscle to improve its contractile performance and economy simultaneously, thanks to myosin phenoconversion and an increase in the number of active enzymatic sites.
