Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on pulmonary hypertension (PH) and related conditions, including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), and pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic lung disease (PH-CLD). Research covers diagnostic tools, biomarkers, treatment strategies, and patient outcomes. Specific areas of investigation include right ventricular dysfunction, ventilatory inefficiency, and the impact of comorbidities like diabetes and kidney disease. The journal also explores novel therapeutic agents and the management of specific patient populations, such as those with methamphetamine-associated PAH or pediatric PH.
