- Summary:

This article takes a look at a research study that was conducted on 5 patients
with SSc-PAH, and 9 patients with IPAH along with 4 control patients. SSc-PAH stands
for Systemic Scleroderma-associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, and IPAH
stands for Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. These two test groups has simi-
lar pulmonary vascular resistance as well as cardiac index. What differed among the
two groups was that the IPAH patients had larger body surface areas. The young age of
the control group was really the only information provided of them.

Interstitial Fibrosis between the right and left ventricles of patients was almost the
same with every patients involved in this study. Intimal Fibrosis was discovered more
often in the left coronary circulation of the SSc-PAH patients. This told researchers that
fibrosis cant be correctly distinguished in the right ventricle of patients with SSc-PAH as
compared to patients with IPAH. They think that this means there is a neurohormonal
response or even a systemic response in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension regardless of
the cause. During this study more lymphocytes in the left ventricle of SSc-PAH and
IPAH patients relative to the control patients.
