Are pulmonary arterial stiffening and systemic arterial stiffening linked or separate processes in patients with COPD?
Are pulmonary arterial stiffening and systemic arterial stiffening linked or separate processes in patients with COPD?
Pulmonary and systemic arterial stiffening appear to be disconnected processes in COPD, suggesting they may require independent therapeutic strategies.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Pulmonary and systemic stiffening may be independent processes in COPD; leaves open whether they warrant distinct therapeutic targets.
Weir‐McCall et al. (2018) studied this question.
