Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease with an incidence rate of 2-6 cases per million per year. Our knowledge of the disease in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is limited by the small number of clinical studies and the complete absence of genetic studies. METHODS: Our aim was to shed light on the clinical and genetic characteristics of PAH in Lebanon and the region by...
