High-altitude hypoxia and echocardiographic indices of pulmonary hypertension in male and female chickens at adulthood
(Circulation Journal, 2014-06)
Background: By combining the chick embryo model with incubation at high altitude (HA), the effects of chronic hypoxia on fetal growth, fetal cardiac and aortic wall remodeling and systemic arterial blood pressure at adulthood ...
Exaggerated pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular dysfunction in high-altitude dwellers with patent foramen ovale
(Chest, 2015)
There is considerable interindividual variability in pulmonary artery pressure among high-altitude (HA) dwellers, but the underlying mechanism is not known. At low altitude, a patent foramen
ovale (PFO) is present in about ...
Exaggerated pulmonary hypertension during mild exercise in chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2010-02)
Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is an important public health problem and is characterized by exaggerated hypoxemia, erythrocytosis, and pulmonary hypertension. While pulmonary hypertension is a leading cause ...
Exaggerated exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension causes lung water accumulation and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2010-08-08)
Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia
(Circulation, 2010-07-19)
Background—Adverse events in utero may predispose to cardiovascular disease in adulthood. The underlying mechanisms are unknown. During preeclampsia, vasculotoxic factors are released into the maternal circulation by the ...
RV contractility and exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension in chronic mountain sickness : a stress echocardiographic and tissue doppler imaging study
(ELSEVIER, 2013-12)
Objectives.
The aim of this study was to evaluate right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular function
and pulmonary circulation in chronic mountain sickness (CMS) patients with rest and stress echocardiography compared ...
Nuevos mecanismos para hipertensión arterial pulmonar en la altura
(COLEGIO MEDICO DE BOLIVIA, 2016-02)
RESUMEN.
Durante la última década el alcance de la investigación en la altura se ha ampliado considerablemente. Dos importantes observaciones han generado este avance; Primero, el hecho de que el edema pulmonar agudo de ...
