Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by an abnormal and chronic increase in the mean pulmonary artery pressure. PAH has been associated with severe cardiac remodelling and life-threatening comorbidities. Although scientific knowledge has evolved throughout past decades, new strategies will be required to improve the management and quality of the life of PAH patients.
This Special Issue, titled Advances in Clinical Management of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, aims to highlight recent clinical and experimental discoveries regarding the mechanisms of PAH and the potential translational applications that could lead to developments of new treatment approaches, thus improving the diagnosis and clinical management of PAH.
In this Special Issue, we welcome original research articles and reviews. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: pulmonary arterial hypertension, inflammation, resolution, cardiopulmonary disorders, and new therapeutic strategies in PAH management.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Sincerely,
Dr. Roddy Hiram
Guest Editor
