Prognostic value of right ventricular mass, volume, and function in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension.

abstract：:Recent studies have illustrated that in addition to the well known risk factors, such as lipoproteins, smoking, hypertension, there are others that cause atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. Our knowledge of atherosclerotic lesions has increased. We now know that atherosclerotic changes are due to inflammatory c...
