| Factor | miR-19a level |
| Description | The levels of miR-19a were significantly increased in the PAH samples. The value of the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve was 0.781 (95% confidence interval, CI = 0.612–0.950, P\0.0001) for the miR-19a assay. |
| Biomarker | YES |

| Application | prognosis |
| Objective | PAH |
| p Value | <0.0001 |
| OR | 0.781 |
| Conclusion | Circulating miR-19a turned out to be a pronounced marker for PAH. Our observations suggest that miR-19a expression is enhanced in PAH blood. Circulating miR-19a may be a novel biomarker for the diagnosis of PAH. |
