Pulmonary hemodynamics in children living at high altitudes

Dante Penaloza, Francisco Sime, Luis RuizUniversity Cayetano Heredia.Peru High Altitude Medicine and BiologyHigh Altit Med Biol 2008; 9: 199-207DOI: 10.1089/ham.2008.1004 AbstractThere are numerous publications on altitude-related diseases in adults. In addition, an International Consensus Statement published in 2001 deals with altitude-related illnesses occurring in lowland children who travel to high altitudes. However, despite the millions of […]

Targeting CircNLRP12 attenuates hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell dysfunction by sponging miR-107-5p and suppressing the ITGA2-mediated FAK/PI3K/AKT pathway

Zongbin Li, Miao Zhao, Shanshan Ma, Shuyu LeiThird People’s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. China European Journal of Medical ResearchEur J Med Res 2025; DOI: 10.1186/s40001-025-03586-0 AbstractBackground: Pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenital heart disease (PAH-CHD) drives lethal pulmonary vascular remodeling. While circular RNAs (circRNAs) are emerging as disease regulators, their functional roles in PAH-CHD remain
