Juvenile systemic sclerosis (jSSc) associated pulmonary hypertension (PH) is rare, but, the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in jSSc. This is a case of a 10-year-old girl whose initial presentation of positive U3-RNP antibody jSSc included diffuse skin findings, severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, and right ventricular failure.

This study aimed to investigate the vascular effects of a radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) applied in the lung ischemia and reperfusion (IR) model on the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (Hif-1α)/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) pathway and B cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2)/BCL-2 associated X protein (BAX) signaling.

There is a need for objective, continuous and remote assessment of exercise capacity in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Using data from the TRACE study, in which 108 adult patients with PAH were continuously monitored with a wrist-worn accelerometer, we evaluated whether actigraphy can facilitate continuous monitoring of exercise capacity.
