Abstract excerpt
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex disorder resulting from many etiologies that cause disturbances of normal pulmonary haemodynamics. Recent breakthroughs have led to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease. In PH, haemodynamic disturbances are closely linked to structural changes and excessive remodeling of pulmonary vessels, leading to progressive narrowing of the pulmonary vascular...
