Association
Application diagnosis
Objective This study aims to estimate plasma levels of acylated ghrelin in children with pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) and to correlate the levels of acylated ghrelin with endothelin-1 (ET-1), nitric oxide (NO), and clinical hemodynamic parameters.
Conclusion Compared with the CHD group, the PH-CHD group had higher PASP, PADP, RVSP, mPAP, RVD, and PAD.
