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 ...
Increasing respiratory dead space improves sleep disordered breathing and hypoxemia in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(The FASEB Journal, 2011-04-25)
Sleep-disordered breathing and vascular function in patients with chronic mountain sickness and healthy high-altitude dwellers
(CHEST, 2016-11-05)
BACKGROUND: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is often associated with vascular
dysfunction, but the underlying mechanism is unknown. Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB)
frequently occurs at high altitude. At low altitude, ...
Exercise induces rapid interstitial lung water accumulation in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2012-04-04)
Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a major public health problem in mountainous
regions of the world. In its more advanced stages, exercise intolerance is often found, but the
underlying mechanism is not ...
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)
Systemic vascular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2012-01-01)
Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a major public health problem characterized by
exaggerated hypoxemia and erythrocytosis. In more advanced stages, patients with CMS often
present with functional and structural ...
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 ...
Response to letters regarding article, "Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia"
(Circulation, 2011)
We thank Lazdam et al and Yuan et al for their interesting
comments on our study.1 Lazdam et al point out that in our study,
birth weight in offspring of mothers with preeclampsia was significantly lower than in controls, ...
