Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pulmonary hypertension is a heterogeneous group of conditions leading to high morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by progressive pulmonary vascular disease and right ventricular dysfunction. There have been substantial advances in imaging technology, genetics, and cellular biology, which have helped in understanding disease mechanisms and identifying additional phenotypes and their features. These developments have helped us diagnose and manage the disease, as well as drive innovations in therapeutics. Despite this progress, there remain challenges in both diagnosis and management, as well as in long-term outcomes.
This Special Issue provides readers with comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of pulmonary hypertension while also presenting historical facts. We urge investigators and clinicians to submit comprehensive reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analysis articles, as well as research articles, including original observational, retrospective, and prospective studies. We like to address progress in understanding pathophysiology, diagnostic management, phenotype identification, genetics, and drug development. We also like to address the current outcomes and future development, as well as present the latest guidelines.
We hope to bring together clinicians, patient advocates, regulators, scientists, and researchers on this issue to address current challenges and outcomes and improve the future outcomes of this condition.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
