Oxidative Stress and Its Implications in the Right Ventricular Remodeling Secondary to Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pulmonary vascular disease characterized by increased pulmonary artery pressures. Long standing pulmonary arterial pressure overload leads to right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy, RV failure, and death. RV failure is a major determinant of survival in PH. Oxidative str...
